# I have had this plant for a few months now. All of the original…

_Posted by Mikayla on 2023-09-16_

I have had this plant for a few months now. All of the original leaves fell off over time and they were replaced with smaller green leaves. It was doing well, I thought, until I noticed the leaves are starting to grow brown spots. Not sure what I did wrong, but it has lived in the same corner for its entire existence so I have a hard time thinking it’s due to a light issue. Please help I don’t want her to die on me 😭

Looks like thrips damage I’m afraid. If you zoom in on your third pic you can see a cluster of about 4 right by the damage. Firstly quarantine away from the rest of your plants and check any that have been nearby and start a pest treatment
