Question
Hi.I have a plant that I believe is called "white butterfly" or "arrowhead vine".For the past several months is has not being growing well.When a new leaf starts to grow it stays a pinkish color and eventually shrivels up.It never fully grows in.I never had this problem before.It stays in low light.I water when soil feels dry.Anyway,I decided to repot it thinking it might be pot-bound.It didn't help.It seems to have actually hurt it.It lost leaves(first they were yellow).The new growth is still a pinkish color.It has no green in it at all.So it is actually pale pink.Any ideas what I did wrong.Thanks.Heather

Above is a website that talks about your plant more. I beleive in this case your problem is too little light, move it to a sunnier location. They like the sun.

Also you may need to water it more, in nature these plants grow on the edges of swamps so they like water.

Never repot a sick plant, it usually just makes it sicker. Email me and we will talk about the problem first.

So give it more water and move it to a sunnier location and let me know if that doesn't help. No plant will live in a location where your hand will not make a shadow. Good luck.
