I’ve had this plant since the spring and every time it puts out a new leaf, another leaf dies. This has happened at least three times since April. What am I doing wrong?

Is this a tricolor syngonium? If so , mines the same way!

Check the spot it’s in, honestly it’s dropping leaves to supply another part of the plant so it could be from lighting, humidity, or water.

If they are too white, they will die off fast anyway. if not, the. definitely check its roots.
