The soil it came in was moist, not overly wet, some of the dead leaves appear to have little black spots, about 1mm across, could this be scale insects, or some kind of fungus? This can be seen in the pictures. All the other plants of this type in the store had the same problem. The dead leaves/branches are mostly confined to the bottom half of the plant. Apologies for the rotated images, not sure why they uploaded like that. |
