I done messed up A-A-RON. I broke off my new leaf on my white wizard. Is there any hope for me? Where will a new leaf come from now?! 😭😭😭😭😭😭

It’s ok my philodendron birkin snapped itself once-

But anyway I think new leaves will either grow from the red parts I highlighted in the attached photo. Or even start to make a whole new branch, I have no idea.

The plant should be fine, just leave the leaf and make sure no dirt or bacteria get on the open wound.

Thanks. I’m not sure why I can’t leave this one alone! It seems like the leaves won’t unfurl by themselves.

She'll figure out what to do next. Tell her she's strong and pretty and watch her thrive 😂.

I need to do that in the mirror too 😆

Honestly my pink princess won’t unfurl right either but I try so hard and I’ve broke two myself don’t worry they’ll come back

Yeah, I think I need to just leave it alone now.
