Anyone have any idea why my plant is suddenly looking so sad 😢  
Recently moved it in to the sun as it looked like it wasn’t getting enough, but now it looks worse!

sun burn 😞 the plant will adapt if you leave her to it. in future make these changes more gradually to avoid this. there are a few methods you can use

Thank you for this! I’m a new plant mum \& I don’t really know what I’m doing 😅

Your plant info says part sun. I am guessing your plant is sunburned. I’m waiting to see if other people agree with this or not. I would remove it from that sunny spot ASAP while waiting for confirmation! Best wishes on healing your sweet plant… 🤗💚🪴

Ahh this seems to be what the problem is! I’ve moved her away and I’ll see how it goes 🪴 Thank you for your help! X

Unfortunately, as you probably know already, those damaged leaves will most likely never heal themselves. You may want to remove those leaves, if there’s not too many that are damaged, and let the plant put its energy into regrowing new and unblemished leaves. Regards…
