Need help w my Bird of Paradise! My plant’s leaves have been turning brown and wilting. I pruned off some of the dead leaves and stalks and noticed that there was mold in one of them. I repotted this plant back in August and she thriving for a while. She’s planted in terracotta. Please help! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PetsAndPlants #BirdOfParadise #help #PestControl #TropicalPlants

Depending on the type of soil mix you have and the terracotta it may be too wet! They like moist but not soggy soil and are prone to root rot.
