I forgot to ask if I should trim down all brown leaves and flowers

### Trespence reageerde op 2025-03-20

Is in too much light or direct sun?

Do you see any pests???

#### Sami Martinez antwoordde op 2025-03-20

I just moved it to a less bright spot. I do not see any pests

#### Trespence antwoordde op 2025-03-20

See how it reacts to less intense light and I agree with everyone to keep your eyes peeled for pests 🙏

#### Sami Martinez antwoordde op 2025-03-20

Sure I will. Should I chop those brown leaves and flowers?

#### Trespence antwoordde op 2025-03-20

Only if they bug you. The flowers are for show …

### Sapphire reageerde op 2025-03-20

Pests? Discoloration can happen because of the lack of sap in the leaves.

#### Sami Martinez antwoordde op 2025-03-20

I don't see any pests. How can improve sap levels?

#### Sapphire antwoordde op 2025-03-20

Plants can improve sap levels on their own, once any pests are gone. Most pests like spider mites feed on the sap of plants.

#### Sami Martinez antwoordde op 2025-03-20

Sounds good! I'll keep an eye on pests. Now that I think about it, he was exposed to cold weather when I was transporting him home. It wasn't much but it's the only thing I can think of.

That can totally do it 💕
