I feel like my autograph tree is dying a bit and I have no idea why. Does anyone have any clue why it’s looking so sad and it is starting to get brown spots on its lower leaves?

My bird of paradise is only producing skinny leaves that are drooping and rippled around the edges. Does anyone have any suggestions to help her grow larger and fuller and fix the rippled leaves?

Hi, I have had this baby’s tears for about 5 months now, unsure why he is looking sad. The last photo is what he looked like when I first got him. Pulled him out yesterday to look at roots and everything looked fine, maybe a tiny tiny bit rootbound. I let the soil dry a bit on top before watering again. Any ideas? Thanks

Franklin, my string of turtles, is growing BUT some of the turtles around the pot have started to look a bit anemic. I have had this plant for 6mo and haven’t repot it. I’m scared to check the roots since turtles are so fragile. As it is, I’m now attempting to propagate a handful of strands that fell off while trying to diagnose the issue and clear out fallen turtles. Any tips or recommendations?
