# This keeps happening. Just the other day I cut off a bunch of yellow…

This keeps happening. Just the other day I cut off a bunch of yellow leaves. Today I have a couple more. But it’s also giving me new leaves like crazy and made friends with my gold dust croton lol should I be worried? Also, just imagine a gold dust colored Swiss cheese plant 🤩

Could be the old leaf dying but also maybe you should try move it to a brighter spot. The long (and naked) stem could be indicated that it trying to find more light.

Makes sense. The roots look supper healthy though. I would give them a little trim to promote growth :)

They’re not the easiest to keep, and I find there is a lot of debate on the best care for them. I had one that behaved the same way, and she refused to give up on me until she did. No matter what I did, I wasn’t able to please her lol I want another one 💀
