Hi guys, can anyone help me? Why are my leaves a little wavy and warped? And the new leaves are kinda yellow but I was told that’s normal. Also just noticed tips are getting a little darker. Any tips would be appreciated!🩷🪴

Have the leaves always looked like this?

My PPP leaves were wrinkly around the edges as well, and I finally figured out it was because the light on the new leaves was too bright. New leaves are pretty fragile.

Besides that, I’ve also heard that this can happen from too low of humidity. But mine is in a plant cabinet with 70%+ humidity and it was still doing it.

If the leaves weren’t like this before and then became wrinkly, there’s probably either something wrong with the roots, or the plant has pests.

Well, I’ve gotten like three or four new leaves since I’ve had it and they all came out like that. There is an existing one that was like that already some of the tips were curled under when I got it.🤍🪴

Gotcha! Here’s how mine looks. The edges of the leaves have gotten less wrinkled over time, but some are still a little wrinkly.
