What do I do about the one yellowing leaf on my Strelitzia? I repotted the plant in the center of the pot a couple of months ago and it is tilting again. Thanks in advance for the help! :)

    You can trim off that yellow leaf. If you repotted a couple months ago and she’s leaning again makes me think that you’ll need to add more soil to the pot and compact it a bit. You can also use a stake and twist ties for support

    Possibly the oldest leave, I don’t know about but think be best to cut it off, also I see you used to have it in a plastic pot inside that one, looks like you have removed it, so means soil more likely to stay wet, be better to put back in a plastic pot but needs a bit of room to get air circulation to bottom of plastic pot, so depending on roots, ever a slightly small pot than you had inside, to allow air in or put something under the plastic pot inside to raise it up for a gap, while doing this I think it would be best to change some of the soil to a better draining mix, maybe add some perlite and pumice. The reason for it tilting is its most likely trying to stretch to the light, so may need a grow light or closer to light source
