Any thoughts on why this stem of my Umbrella Tree is turning black? It started kind of in the middle of the stem and has progressed mostly upwards and a bit downwards. Now it is extending to the stem of the one leaf set.

    😬 check your roots! Sounds like it might be rot

      It was indeed root rot. I removed the infected stem and I’m going to repot the other stem in fresh soil. Thoughts on if I should reduce pot size?

      definitely smaller pot and maybe do a little peroxide treatment on whatever salvageable roots you have
