Well I feel stupid! As an ignorant shopper of house plants, I nitially, I thought oh, how kool! At first I thought exotic plant from tropical place then when reading the label, clearly stating they were painted. I read on to the nontoxic part and thought, oh, ok, it doesn’t hurt the plant or environment I am an expert in skincare so I can tell you all the ways the beauty industry lies to the public about their “uneffective” cheap products! Why didn’t I use common sense? It is through the pores(leaves) that photosynthesis occurs? How could I just buy into the nontoxic gimmick? I feel like such a fool! NO pants are a living being and provide life to this eart! As a Reiki Master I’m applauded at myself for contributing to the profits of such an injustice and dishonor to the living things On this earth that provide oxygen and life to this planet! But there must be others as fooled as me, so could you tell me how to keep this life giving plant alive?

I think once they start to peel just let it do it naturally and hopefully the green will come through and start growing. I’m not sure as I have never had one…. let me know how it goes. Good luck!

I do know the difference between dye and die. Oops on the above.

I’m sorry Mindy. They will usually grow out if they have enough light and have the right care. They new growth will just be green. Good luck and thank you for your comments.
