Hello! this is the first plant i’ve ever gotten it did not have tags so if anyone knows what plant this is please let me know! she was thriving until i repotted becuase the soil was not well draining and the plant was drowning. but since then it only seems to be getting worse, yellowing leaves and wilting leaves help!

    It looks like a philodendron Mamei

    How long has it been since you repotted it? Repotting in itself can cause stress, even if it’s to a better situation. If it was waterlogged, it could also have some root rot. Did you notice any smell to the old soil?

      It did get waterlogged which is why i decided to repot! it didn’t have a smell and the roots weren’t too bad i cut any rotten ones

      Do you give it tap water? My calatheas need filtered, distilled or conditioned water to thrive. You can get fish tank water conditioner and add a few drops.

      My philodendrons are in just regular indoor potting mix. Nothing extra in it. They are doing fine. I water them when the top soil is dry.
