Hello!! I’m a NEW plant mommy and I’m worried. About 5 days ago I did some pruning “hope I did it right,” and today I used some a neem oil/water mist and wiped her down. I’m assuming with the dead ends not even a week later I’m doing something wrong?? Help please?!!! I also don’t know the name of this plant to add her to my app! If anyone knows that’d be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance😊
Looks like a corn plant
She is stressing. Usually when I get a new plant, I leave them alone for a few days so they can get used to the light and location. Give is a few days. As long as they have light and you watered them it should be fine. These are pretty resilient.

Sometimes it could be the temperature of the water so I try to let it come to room temperature it I am getting it from the tap. If nothing then check the roots. Maybe it needs a larger pot.
