# Can anyone explain why the baby leaves from my polka dot plant are…

_Posted by CandyTC🪷 on 2024-02-26_

Can anyone explain why the baby leaves from my polka dot plant are fuzzy? On the top are new green leaves without fuzz, but the bottom ones have them.  
It’s so small but I don’t see any pests or insects. just fuzzy, hairy white hairs. I’m  
not sure what to do about them.  
Thank you! 🙏

This is normal. My favorite thing about the polka dot plant are the fuzzy pink leaves :)
