Thank you Plant Proper for my newest Plant, an Apoballis Acuminatissima Lavallaei, otherwise known on Greg as a Red Sword. She's beautiful!!

Help!! I just got this plant less than a month a go, and she is very unhappy. I had her next to other plants over a pebble tray and near an East-facing window. Her soil is moist but not waterlogged. Despite this, her leaves keep yellowing. I know this variety is relatively new, but can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I really don't want to lose this plant.

Why are there brown leaves? I am not sure it is a Chinese evergreen either

A reminder that plants are generally pretty hearty and not to panic when things don't go right! This has been Janai over the last week or so due to the freeze and lack of power inside. Look at how droopy she was! And today we are fully back up and standing tall. Just be patient, get the conditions right again, and remember don't panic! #ComebackStory #Brrrr #WinterCame #IWon #TipsandTricks #HappyPlants
