New Adansonii is yellow and brown
Does anyone have any advice of what to do with this plant. I got it from planterina in terrible condition maybe it’s bacterial or fungal? #unhappyplants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #Monstera #MonsteraMob #MonsteraAdonsonii #unscrupuloussellers #planterina

@Megongreg I would make sure the roots are not rotten. If they are, you will need to trim the dead roots (rotten, mushy, very dark, stinky) and gently rinse the good roots (light color, firm) and repot the plant.
If the roots look OK then it is possibly just a leaf issue so it should recover as long as you make sure there us good airflow and the leaves aren't staying wet.

@tattedscientist thank you I just sprayed neem oil all over the plant and leaves should I take it out of the pot and do something to the roots?
I’m a plant newbie but if the problem persist I would cut the roots like @tattedscientist said that are no good. Also if you got it from PLANTERINA I would definitely contact them if this happens next time. I ordered from them and I feel like something is written in their policy for this. There is no joy in getting a plant and it already being damaged/ contaminated and having to rehab it.
@Megongreg did you also take a peek at the roots like @tattedscientist suggested?
It might be in too big of a pot which is causing root rot and dead leaves.

It's so frustrating to buy a plant that arrives in bad shape, that's why I created #unscrupuloussellers
@PeaceLoveRoots no I didn’t because the policy says to contact within 24 hours and send photos so I believe it to be too late and I don’t want to waste my energy I might leave a review though
