the plant will drop what it isn’t using on its own when it’s done with it — you won’t hurt anything if you cut it off, though.

but I think your pot miiiight be too big, hard to say from the angle but that’s my suspicion

How long has it been since you watered and what soil is that? Unlike most plants, this kind of plant actually needs soil that’s really moisture retaining, and it needs watering often. If I have a leaf on mine that won’t unfurl, it usually will after watering.

I watered also
