My ficus tineke’s newest leaf (about 2-3 weeks old!) is lookin a bit strange, and i can’t really figure out why! i’ve tried increasing the humidity with a humidifer, i don’t seem to see any pests, however i have recently moved its location to a brighter spot 2 days ago (it previously received about 800 lumens of light, it seemed like it needed more, increased to about 1,500, i worried the leaf was burning so i’ve now moved it again into a shadier area). however, even if it was burnt, prior to moving it the leaf still seemed to be an extremely different colour to the rest of the leaves & wouldn’t harden. I also changed the soil 2 days ago to be a lot more draining.

    My new leaf is a couple weeks old and doesn’t look the same either.

      It’s quite common for the new leaf to take some time to reach the same color as the rest of the plant

      Yes! If you like the coloring check out the Calathea fusion white, the variegated musa nono, the aglaonema pictum tricolor, syngonium three kings, and alocasia frydek variegated. If you’re anything like me you’ll love them all!
