My polka dot plant used to be lush and beautiful with bright pink and green! Is it normal for it to grow out a lot then die off? It looks like there’s new growth in the center. So I’m wondering if I need to trim or cut off the old long dying leaves?? Any input would be greatly appreciated 🫶🏼
I’m also not a fan of mine. It’s leggy and constantly dropping leaves. I just don’t think they make good houseplants. I’ll be passing mine along soon as well.

Trim it. Pop the cuttings back in the soil or in water
1 LikeIt used to look like this when I got it and now has slowly progressed to the picture above.
Once they get leggy like that (usually from bad or not enough light) they are EXTREMELY persnickety. I have been trying to rehab one for about a year, and it never has grown back well. Any hints or tips would be appreciated.
