# Anyone know why my flamingo is losing its red color on these two…

Anyone know why my flamingo is losing its red color on these two leaves. It just grew a new one around the time they started turning yellow. Is this normal progression or is this something wrong. I’ve only had it for a couple months but until now I’ve had no problems.

Mine is pink but I expect the similar in nature. As the flowers start to die they lose their colour.

Just the old flowers dying off, nothing to worry about!
