I’m guessing the leaves were just pressed against something but I’d remove the browning leaves. Also look into adding silica along with fertilizing. I’ve been adding diatomaceous earth, I’ve read that silica helps with cell structure and the plants ability to absorb nutrients. Especially useful for variegated varieties because of the lack of chlorophyll.

That is so helpful!! I’ll definitely have to look into that! Thank you!

Thai constellations are known to be prone to root rot, so make sure to let it dry completely between waterings. A clear pot is a good idea as well so you can keep an eye on the roots. Other than that, just chunky soil and bright indirect light!

Good to know about the root rot!! I’ve been looking at clear pots recently for some of my other plants and I’m gonna use this as my sign to just buy them LOL! Thank you for the tips!!
