_Posted by Lauren on 2024-08-15_

Hello!  
I’m on my second Prayer Plant and she is thriving (thank goodness)!  
I’m unsure of what I should do with the dead/yellow stems. They’re a little soft so I’m unable to pull them out.

Any advice on what I should do?

you can leave them! they’re just the spent sheaths. eventually they’ll pull out easily
