Not sure, but I think this is NOT GOOD

It looks like my Bird of Paradise’s new leaf is opening too early. And since it hasn’t cleared the base-area-part (🤨🤷🏻‍♂️🤨) yet, it’s really straining the plant. Worried it might tear…

A little background: been fiddling with mini humidifiers to balance out the mini heaters I got to counter the cold weather. (Yeah…this BoP is spoiled). Still don’t think I’ve found a “sweet spot” yet… And was just out of town for 10 days… So she’s definitely pissed…

Any advice?  
Thank you!!

I’ve had that happen before. It will be fine. I’d be more  
Concerned about the top not unraveling, as it looks like it’s tearing where it hasn’t unfurled. I would use a warm cloth to help the top out a bit.

This has happened to me, to that leaf. BoP leaves are going to tear, no matter what. Agree with other post, a moist cloth might help at the top to encourage it to unravel at the leaf tip.
