I repotted to this one about 4 months ago, and I water it regularly. Partial sun in a brighter room, but still she looks really pale and has at least 3 dead leaves a week that get real crispy. Any suggestions? Thx! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/C1wzrWUwgW30WmZaXdo8eUYvxaSyVEOslqVTbIU1Idw/nhr9pBcWR_eKnLkL03q5bA.webp?size=large) ## 13件のコメント ### NewerHorizons777さんが2024-03-06にコメントしました How often do you water it? And does it have drainage? I have one also and that type of thing seems to happen when it has too much water or it’s getting root bound. #### Lindseyさんが2024-03-07に返信しました I water every 1.5 weeks or so - whenever the alerts tell me to. There’s good drainage, and this pot is pretty new. The growth is almost gangly and the vines aren’t thick or strong ### Morgan T 🍄🖤さんが2024-03-07にコメントしました Mine loves sun and is thriving in a sunny window #### Morgan T 🍄🖤さんが2024-03-07に返信しました ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/CsJNvzRF8dxA-XPExBfGOknCbudtn3rwXozzeqKkQIo/TY9KCeyxTdamVl4Q1OhGAw.webp?size=large) ### Madzさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました You can always make more by stem propagating #### Lindseyさんが2024-03-07に返信しました Interestingly enough, the same thing started happening to the one I propagated 😭 ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/C1wzrWUwgW30WmZaXdo8eUYvxaSyVEOslqVTbIU1Idw/ZY1k0Ec7T1K6F4uzhgRHag.webp?size=large) #### Sunnyさんが2024-03-07に返信しました The pot is too big for those few stems. This could lead to root rot when the plant can’t use all the water in the soil. Plus, they like bright light and need it to maintain the dark colors. ### Chrissyさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました These plants do not have a very long life span. I think my most thriving ones only lasted 2 years. #### Lindseyさんが2024-03-07に返信しました That’s certainly good to know! Thank you! ### Tellieさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました This is my baby in October. Still the same. It’s just on the ground now. I’ve had it going on 3 years. I have 2 Purple Heart plants going on 5 years they are bigger than this one. ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/Z2B7kTs6ufIy2O5NurADba3zGv2JQOTvYvXGk_Uw430/yrWNNpqgSjWMbx-_hZPVFg.webp?size=large) ### Sunnyさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました It’s a myth that Tradescantias only live a few years. My Purple Heart has been living in 3 pots outside in full 100°F summer sun and winter freeze (Zone 9) for almost 15 years. See pic. I have one in a 6 inch pot almost 10 years. ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/wefqOljjhEOiS9LRzOB1-QhxkVJiB4A5DGumXhnNrhs/RHhX_B-ZQ2ST8OHyxIRsHA.webp?size=large) ### Sunnyさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました Your plant looks pale like it lacks sufficient light and getting too much water as stated above. Following the Planta app to water without verifying the plant actually needs water can kill the plant. Be sure to use a bamboo skewer to verify the soil is completely dry before watering. 🍀🪴 ### Rachelさんが2024-03-07にコメントしました Definitely not enough light. --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
