Hi friends! Need some help with my bird of paradise. This is the third leaf that has become brown in the middle and curled up. The other two eventually completely died. Is this fungus? Watering issue? Please help! There’s a new leaf coming in so I’m less likely to think it’s a watering issue but still clueless. Thanks!!

Yeah dark spots can be a cause of overwatering or a fungus or bacterial problem. Cut off the brown spotted leaves and get a fungal spray. Or try watering less. They don't like to be touched or moved or even looked at so when walking by it just pretend you aren't looking at it 😅😅🙈🙈

I love this lol. Shouldn’t have touched it! Will cut off this leaf and get some copper fungicide. Thank you!!
