# so for background, my roots were outgrowing the pot and i made a post…

_Gepostet von Sydnei am 2023-12-05_

so for background, my roots were outgrowing the pot and i made a post asking should i repot. (everyone answered yes but i was waiting until i identified a new pot/soil). she started yellowing and lost abt three lower leaves before i repotted.

i repotted abt three weeks ago and now she has two additional leaves yellowing. do you think this is just shedding because of new growth or should i be concerned? roots looked okay but attached for reference. thoughts welcomed.

Sometimes repotting shocks the plant a little resulting in leaf loss.

okay, i knew that but asked just in case! at least it’s the lower leaves. thank you!

If it’s just the lower leaves, I think you’re ok! 🌿
