I am thinking of a watering problem. How often have you been watering?

#### Peyton replied on 2024-03-05

once a week

When you water once a week, is that regularly or do you make sure the soil is dry first? I don’t own a birds of paradise but I think they don’t mind being a tad dry!

I think that's fine. But looking over this plant, it kinda looks overwatered. Look out for any other signs of overwatering before you assume of this problem though!
