The white things on the leaves do they move? It can be a number of things to cause this overwatering, pest, root rot, nutrient deficiency. How much humidity does this plant receive?

#### Daril ha respondido el 2025-07-26

The white specks are dust - time to clean the leaves! The spot where the plant currently lives does not get a lot of humidity. Could that be the issue?

Yes that’s your problem I’m sure of it, because if you were overwatering you would have leaf drop and they would be curling up. I have mine on a pebble tray

Thank you! Does the pebble tray help with providing humidity?

### Yolanda a commenté le 2025-07-28

Yes it helps tremendously with the humidity
