Yeah, pick those brown ones off the bottom but then I vote to leave it and keep doing whatever you’re doing :) it’s normal for shoot plants and succulents for bottom leaves to die as it moves up in the world. It looks happy and healthy.

I’ll be sure to do that, thanks!

Your doing great! Just check to make sure it doesn’t need to be repotted. Sometimes from big box etc they usually are outgrowing their homes.

Thanks!! How do I know if it needs to be repotted?

#### Tellie svarte den 2023-08-03

If roots are coming out the bottom then repot. I have kept mine in the same pot for a few years now. But I do change soil every year. Once it gets to your size you like you can do this as well.

Looks like a lily

It’s an asiatic lily!
