Any tips on how I can revive this plant? The leaves have been turning brown and wilting 😭

I cut the brown tips but it’s looking so scarce

Also will like to add the bottom of the leaves color (the nice crisp purple burgundy has faded!)

It’s in quite a big pot! How much of the pot do the roots fill?

#### Gur replied on 2023-09-13

There were so many more leaves prior to them dying- should I switch to a smaller pot?

The burgundy fades when it’s getting a lot of light, move it out of direct sunlight and up the humidity either by clustering it with other plants or adding a humidifier typically they like 60% humidity or more especially when they are struggling

I see will give it a shot! Thank u

No problem, also I wouldn’t worry about the pot size unless you’re finding your soil is struggling to dry out within a reasonable time which could lead to root rot - that’s typically the only issue to look out for with a larger pot. This doesn’t look to be the case here as he’s looking quite crispy in the picture so if you should be fine.

Ah okay- thank u so much! This happens to be my favourite plant so sad to see it become so frail 😭
