This leaf just fell off my philodendron. The rest of my plant seems happy. I just came back from a week vacation. So maybe it’s from something related to that.

I personally would think that’s absolutely normal. Sometimes only for two will just not make it. But if the overall plant is great, then I would just call that other one off. I would not overthink that. The whole plant has a problem.

It’s probably just an old leaf falling off I wouldn’t worry if it’s just that one

I also came back from visiting family for a week and my philo has an entirely yellow leaf. Fine otherwise. I watered him today as his soil was dry and his watering day was during my absence.

I truly think that plants, like pets, throw fits when we leave 😂. All the plants here look great by the way 👌🏾♥️

🤣 Separation anxiety, just like dogs!

Thanks for the plant compliment! 👍🏽👍🏽

😂😂right I did a lot of plant care today with hopes that my plant babies behave while I’m gone this weekend
