# My ponytail pom/ elephant foot trees leafs have been turning brown…

My ponytail pom/ elephant foot trees leafs have been turning brown and I’ve slightly increased the amount of water I’ve been giving it but that hasn’t made a difference! Google says to trim the brown pieces off which I’ve been doing but the browning hasn’t stopped… What do I do??

It most likely needs a new pot it looks like it may be root bound or it could have root rot

i had this problem with mine and i trimmed off the dry ends and repotted it and it started getting new growth within a few weeks

I repotted it a few days ago and now it’s doing great!
