Are you top-watering or bottom-watering this one? I bottom-water mine, as I have read that the leaves don’t like getting wet/direct moisture! I have noticed when the leaves get wet, they can get spots/shrivel.

It may be because of improper watering, whether it may be too much or too little water.

Mine did that when it was getting non stop rain showers last few months (its outside). Now that it stopped raining and I’m not having constantly wet soggy soil or wet leaves, that problem stopped.

I agree, bottom-watering is the way to go with these. Or if you top-water try not to get them wet.
