Hi Planta Community!, A few weeks ago I noticed my White Birds of Paradise plant was having one of their simple fix issues. The new leaf was not unfurling after 3 weeks. Just today I decided I was going to do the wet cloth method and help it unfurl. When I arrived to my BOP location the leaf was on the ground, i checked for pests and I don’t see anything with the naked eye. I do have a gnat problem in the area. But my BOP is a little dehydrated too. I have two questions for you guys: 1. What do you think happened, why is the leaf separated? 2. Can I propagate the leaf? Thanks in advance, #23

    It looks like some type of crown rot to me. Do you mist this one or overhead water it frequently? It looks like some water got stuck in the split and it rotted the leaf from the base of the plant

      So I never mist my BOP and I don’t water frequently… But a few months ago I washed off the dust on the leaves with some water when the leaf was first coming out of the pregnant leaf.
