Hello,
I am having some trouble with fussy calatheas. I have a dottie, ornata, and rosy roseopicta. I keep them next to a closed east terrace door, away from direct sun, on humidity trays (not sitting in the water) and keep the soil a little moist. I ordered them online and have had them for about 1 month. They arrived stressed, I had to cut several leaves off them. Despite taking the care mentioned, I am getting a combination of dry dark edges / spots, some curling on the edges, yellowing edges, and color fading on the tips. I have only one new leaf grow on the ornata and as it is still rolled, it is growing in dry/withered/light brown. What does that mean?
Is there something I'm not doing correctly?
Also, when you cut an ugly/dying leaf, you cut as close to the soil line as possible?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
giselle9
