# Beginner’s cry for help! Planta can’t seem to identify this one…

_Posted by Zach on 2024-01-16_

Beginner’s cry for help! Planta can’t seem to identify this one correctly — maybe it’s a Palm Lilly? — and it’s clearly not doing very well — above all, the leaves are losing their color and starting to shrivel. I water it every 14 days and it’s outside in a humid environment between 70 and 80F every day. What am I doing wrong?

Yes it’s a palm lily!

This looks overwatered. Are you checking to see if it actually needs water between waterings?
