# Hello everyone! I recently got my dream plant about a week ago and…

_Postat av SalmonLuvver den 2023-06-09_

Hello everyone! I recently got my dream plant about a week ago and I’m just wondering if there’s anything that I could do to keep her as happy as possible since I’m don’t want to take any chances killing this expensive beauty. There’s some browning on her leaves, a bit on her stem, and possibly something else that someone else might catch. I’d like to know if there’s any advice that you all could give me to keep her alive and thriving. Thank you all in advance! 🫶

I’m no expert, but I have learned a thing or two about variegation (white specifically)… in that, the white parts of leaf has zero chlorophyll in it, so its can’t photosynthesize. So if your browning edges are occurring on the white parts, its kind of inevitable par for the course, as each leaf ages. I understand it becomes quite difficult to maintain the white being white for this reason.  
…part of why I personally will never buy a white variegated plant. 🌿🤓 All we have is NOW. Enjoy it while it lasts!

Give it lots and lots of light (but not too much direct sun) 💚

Ooooh! Love them 😍 since I placed mine under a grow light (on for 14h/day) they have been thriving! So yep, lots of light!
