Is this anything to worry about? it still has some new growth but there’s a few leaves that are starting to turn this way. Should I be concerned and if so any suggestions?

I was having the same issue. It ended up being root rot on one of them. I removed the bad root and gave it a water bath. Also made sure to place it outside for a couple weeks.

Oh no! How do I tell the difference between the good roots and the bad ones and how do I prevent this from happening again? I’m still fairly new to being a plant mom haha so any tips would be great. Thank you so much! :))

If the root is black and mushy and smells it is rotted

It may be overwatered or not enough sun exposure also.

Ok thank you this was super helpful! :)

Leaves turn brown and die. I would just remove it.

#### Danny’s garden replied on 2025-03-07

Thank you Carrie I will try this as well :))

I would worry about a root or fungal issue. So check the roots and remove the leaves. It it has crossed into fungal infection they are very contagious. So leaving the leaves persits the problem

Ok I have removed all the leaves that looked infected! Thank you for that tip
