# I’m a new plant and I have had this plant for roughly a year. It is…

I’m a new plant and I have had this plant for roughly a year. It is just now started to like really grow well, but then the leaves started turning red. Is it supposed to do that or is it too close to the window? I’m not sure if I’m hurting it or if it’s supposed to do that and it likes being Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like sun stress. It’s my guess.

Some plants show variegation only under high light. So it might be a feature, not a bug. If those leaves drop off, that’s a bad sign, but if they seem healthy otherwise, maybe it’s good!

Sunstressing some plants will bring out beautiful colors!!! And it kills others 🤣 looks like a good one to me!
