Cut ?

Question

I just got this pretty girl a couple days ago. Her one leaf is in very bad shape so I was going to cut it at the base. There’s already a new leaf coming in off the same stem. Should I not cut at all ? Should I cut further up above the new leaf ? Is cutting old, damaged leaves even correct ? I’m newer to plants and have had mostly cacti so I’m definitely still learning😓 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #NewPlantMom

Hi Izabella, I would wait on cutting the damaged leaf until the new one grows out.  Congrats on your new plant! 🙂

@Jurassicbellz I agree with @DeluxePeony45 . I was taught to wait til the baby get some stability and then cut off the bad. You don’t want to damage the newbie. 👋🏽

Hi Sherri, I’ve been here all my life, unfortunately, lol.  I just recently started keeping plants (thanks to my daughter)   She bought me an orchid for Mother’s Day a while ago and I killed it 🫤. Since then I bought another one and determined to keep it alive . . . Hence my plant journey lol. If you’re ever driving through Fresno let me know!  Would love to meet you!c
