# My white philodendron isn’t doing so great- 2 leaves are yellowing…

_Geplaatst door CandyTC🪷 op 2025-01-21_

My white philodendron isn’t doing so great- 2 leaves are yellowing and have a pinkish middle, and 2 others have brown spots.  
It has been in the same  
location, watering schedule has been mostly the same in that I’ve been watering it more often because its been a terribly dry and warm winter here.  
Any advice would be appreciated!  
Thank you! 🙏

That looks a bit like sunburn. Try taking it out of direct light (if it’s there) and maybe put a humidifier nearby. I’m not sure what to do with the burned leaves, but I hope this helps ☺️

I suspect it might be sunburn too, but it’s been in the same spot and was ok. I also have a humidifier running pretty much all day.  
I will try moving it a bit away from the window and see if that helps.  
I wonder too if I need to repot it, I will check the bottom of the pot tomorrow for roots sticking out.  
Thank you for your response!!! 😀

No problem! That’s also a good idea, I didn’t think about that.

I am a big fan of lovethatleaf.com. among other helpful articles there is one entitled the ultimate care guide for variegated indoor plants (and how not to kill them). It's a little long but definitely worth it if you love your variegated plants..

I’ll check that out, thanks for the tip!
