    Hi!

    I just picked up this plant yesterday. Today some of the leaves look like this and I have another plant that looks like this from time to time so I thought I might find out what it is. Does this look like the result of over watering or is it a typical sign of some little bug in the house? I am a bit of an over waterer which is why I was careful not to water it when I brought it home!

    Cheers!

    Can you give us a name? That would help figure out if the problem is environmental or buggy.

    Hi!

    This one is a Maraya Paniculata but I've had a similar problem on another leafy green plant I don't know the name of.

    I think with overwatering they turn more yellow than brown. That's how I killed my last one :crying:
