# The newest leaf on my rubber plant is curling weirdly. Coloration…

_Posted by Starr on 2023-03-30_

The newest leaf on my rubber plant is curling weirdly. Coloration looks good and all of the other leaves look fine too, it’s just this new one. Should I be concerned ?

I had the same thing happen on mine but it ended up growing like normal

I’ve never owned a rubber plant before but from my experience with my plants, sometimes a leaf just comes out a little wiggly and it’s fine. And if the coloring is looking normal then I’d say it’s probably OK

I have a ficus altissima, and almost all of its leaves that have come in since I got it are a little wiggly like that. It doesn’t get quite as much light or water as my elastica burgundy (with nice flat leaves) but it keeps growing! I think your plant is healthy but if you want to try to fix the wiggly leaves, try more light or water.
