# Hi! I am relatively new to being a plant mom and just got this lady…

_Publié par Kenzie le 2025-11-20_

Hi! I am relatively new to being a plant mom and just got this lady valentine a couple weeks ago. However, it looks like some of her leaves are starting to turn yellow :(

I repotted her when I got her and have placed her by a sunny window. However, it is a bit cold here now and this room can get colder than the rest of my apartment. Any tips to stop this before it becomes a bigger problem?

the sun is too much !! it needs indirect light. i have a lady valentine too. also feel if the leaves feel more dry or mushy/soft. if they are dry, you might be under watering

Thanks for the tips! I moved it to a space with less direct light. The leaves were a bit dry so I gave it a good water. The pot does have a drainage hole in the bottom but I will leave in the nursery pots from now on :)

also correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks like you took the plant out of the nursery pot and potted it in the decorative pot? does it have drainage holes? i would recommend from now on, always keeping ur plant in the nursery pot and just setting it in the decorative pot. most plants need really good drainage

awesome ! as long as it doesn’t get any direct light, just bright indirect, it should bounce back. and don’t worry, I used to pot my plants into the decorative pot too until I knew better!
