I’ve tried to research how to take care of it, as I know these can be difficult to care for. However, I’m not sure what this is, or why it’s coloring like that? Any help is appreciated, I just wanna do my best to keep her alive! Thanks in advance, any tips for this are appreciated. ![Attachment 1 of 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/3OHm_c7tCYlZlxdoqcpOQeevjJdWa30anNUXQ12TESw/352518020c5f45a188dd6b8f87e332d2.webp?size=large) ## 5 comments ### Tee Jay commented on 2023-10-10 What are you referring to specifically? Everything looks normal to me in the pic #### Sav replied on 2023-10-10 The brown on the nodes? Is that healthy/growth? Sorry, I’ve been trying to look up as much as I can but want to make sure it looks well. ### Ida commented on 2023-10-10 The brown stuff on the stems? They used to protect the leaves before they developed 😊 so perfectly normal 🤗 #### Sav replied on 2023-10-10 Thank you so much! Wanted to make sure. 🤗 ### Vicky commented on 2023-10-10 It’s a Fiddle Fig Tree! --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com). Reading is open to everyone.
