Just got two plants in that I ordered from a plant shop on Instagramā¦ needless to say Iām pretty disappointed :( Not sure if itās the seller or shipperās fault, but for paying $100+ for two plants, I expected them to be in better condition. Theyāre an Aglaonema Pictum Tricolor and an Alocasia Zebrina for anyone wondering. Any tips (especially for the aglaonema) to help them recover would be much appreciated!š«¶š»
Zebrina. Fingers crossed. It might come back once place in light. Tricolor Iām not sure. Honestly Iāve never seen plants come back from this.
1 Like When I did get my zebrina and repot it. It did lose 2 of its 3 leaves and then started sprouting new about month later. It could be in shock or just unhealthy like the person below šš½ said.

Iād be messaging the seller! No way would I be happy about spending that much and getting unhealthy plants. Sorry that happened! What a bummer!

Not sure about the Zebrina other then it is beautiful but the Ag should bounce back. They are very resilient. Iāve cut mine all the way back and they started new growth from the nuns. Just check for healthy roots. Personally Iād cut off the dying leaves. So the plant can focus of growing new healthy leaves. Leave the healthier leaves alone.
