Does she look like she might have pests?

Just water when dry. They have water in their trunks. Bright indirect light, of course (everything is bright indirect light lol)

Going to stay here for this… I’ve been gifted one recently and would love some tips too 🙂 I have her just next to a west window so gets some end of day direct light… seems to be happy 🥰 💚

In my experience, they don’t like to be moved around or put near a vent. They also like humidity so I found my kitchen to be a good spot. I have read that they benefit from regular pruning too. Just don’t take more than one third off. My daughter does not want me to cut it though so we’re just letting it grow wild lol

Thank you!! I wanted to ask if this looks like pest damage to you?
