Try to repot it
Thank you
Hi Amy - I can’t say for sure, but it doesn’t look like a Norfolk pine to me. It looks like a type of cypress or spruce even. If it is a larger cousin, some are meant for outdoor keeping and may not do well indoors. Many plants are β€œtricked” and look all showy for us when we buy them from the store and then after they get settled in their new home, they let β€œtheir true colors” show meaning that nurseries force these guys to skip process if you will to look/be the best as a rule of thumb unfortunately. I hope your plant gets better! Other things to look into aside from repotting are drainage, type of soil, following watering/fertilizer schedule as needed, lighting, any changes to environment, etc.
Thank you so much
