So I just bought this Swiss cheese plant yesterday and need some tips. She’s got some brown spots on leaves and honestly looks cluttered in this pot. Also some brown spots on the stems. I need suggestions and tips for her!! Please and thank you.

She’s definitely crowded and don’t have any room for her roots to spread out. It looks like her roots are growing upward to maintain her space. I would say start with getting her into a bigger pot first and see how that helps her before moving onto plant surgery.

Okay that’s kinda what I was leaning towards. Gonna start there. Thank you !!!

also, just incase you dont know, make sure youre not going into a bigger pot than 1-2 inches larger than the root ball to prevent root rot! good luck!

Thank you! I was actually just wondering that. Luckily I got a pot 1 inch bigger so that worked out

Yo have to decide if you want her to trail or if you want her to climb. Their leaves get much bigger if they climb. When you repot make sure to use a good, chunky soil mix.
