The variegated parts will turn brown as they can’t photosynthesize like the green parts. Some have said that using silica strengthens the plant and helps the variegation last longer.

Interesting. I have heard that, and so there’s not really a way to avoid it from happening or sounds, but maybe prolong it!! Thanks!

No problem, happy to help

You can cut the browning parts off and it will be just fine!

Ok! Thank you!! It’s so pretty I wish I could prevent it!

### StringofMonsteras kommenterade den 2024-05-10

Yeah!

It’s the hardest thing about these plants! What we buy them for is what we get sad for!
