My stromanthe triostar has unfurled a new leaf - but many of the rest look miserable. I’m in Minnesota, it gets some bright indirect light, I keep her misted, and she has good drainage. Soil is very dry. More water?

    Triostars are tropical plants, so they thrive in environments that replicate that climate. I would recommend watering her a tad more, so keep the soil moist, but not wet. And water with distilled or rainwater, as they’re sensitive to minerals and salts in tap water. Additionally, I’d advise against misting as it doesn’t actually benefit the plant in the long run. To help with humidity, I would either try a pebble tray or a humidifier. Sorry I can’t pin point the problem, but that’s what I know works for these types of plants.

    I agree with everything the previous comment said. The ends are crispy due to the lack of humidity, these plants need 65% humidity or higher. This one also seems to have reverted back to all green, so it’s going to need more bright indirect light.
