Any tips on how to keep this plant warm ? I believe the browning of the leaves are bc of the cold from my home? You can’t really tell but the taller leaves are starting to turn a little yellow. For context I’m a flight attendant and live alone so I’m not really able to control the temp of my home when I’m away. I was thinking about getting a grow light? But idk if that’ll help

    Do you think direct sunlight may be burning the leaves?

    This looks more consistent with low humidity than cold damage. Leaf burn usually happens when leaves are in direct contact with something hot, like window glass or a grow light. Cold damage presents itself as soft mushy black dead leaves/ stems. From the photo, the light looks indirect (it’s filtered through the window and blinds), which is actually ideal for this plant. True direct sun would be unfiltered outdoor sun.
