Hello all, I just recently got this Philodendron Birkin, all the leaves were green when I bought it, but a week after coming home the leaves started to yellow. At first I had it to close to the window and i thought the leaves were burning, but even after moving it, more leaves were still yellowing. Has anyone had this issue?

My first guess would be overwatering? I’ve never owned one so I don’t know.

Agree, check the roots for rot!

yellow leaves generally mean there’s an issue with watering. either under or over. water when it’s at least half dry. philodendrons can handle being more dry than wet. bright, indirect light is what they prefer.
