Hi Amy 👋

Are the imperfections new? Usually you can see the pests, not just signs and from your photos I don't see any.

@PlantMompy hi ashley! yep they are new, pretty much appeared overnight on the tips of a couple of the leaves. i actually saw a little white thingy on this leaf earlier, praying it was just dust though 😭

Hi Amy!
I'd recommend googling "thrips" to see if it's the white bug you saw earlier. If so, I'm happy to tell you how to get rid of them. Sometimes their damage looks like your plant.

@PlantMompy honestly it looked a little bit like a thrip! but it wasn't moving. i've checked the other leaves and none have anything on them at the moment, but i'll definitely keep an eye out and quarantine her in case!! thank you so much :)
