# Hi everyone! I’ve never had a boat lily before and idk why the leaves…

Hi everyone! I’ve never had a boat lily before and idk why the leaves are browning like this. It is watered and it’s got some new growth but the older leaves keep dying.

Any suggestions?

Looks sunburnt.. is it getting too much sun? You can just cut the brown tips off.

It’s under a grow light. I could move it I guess 🤔
