# I recently had to repot my False African Violet since her old pot…

_Geplaatst door Bernie Botanical 🌿 op 2025-06-30_

I recently had to repot my False African Violet since her old pot wasn’t draining properly. I’ve now noticed some browning leaves in certain areas. Does anyone know if this is just from past overwatering or if this could be a new issue? ☹️

Hey, that’s normal to happen, all the stress for the overwatering and the new pot, leave it be and next time that you water add just a little. She will get happy again, btw it’s a beautiful plant 😍😍

Repotting can damage roots. This will show up as dropped or yellowing leaves. There is additional stress from disturbed roots and getting used to the new soil. It takes time for the plant to adjust.

Thank you! I’m glad it’s nothing serious
