I have this house plant, I ma not sure what it is, but it has some odd symptoms that i can't figure out, first the plant looks droopy like it is overwatered almost, some of the oldest most matuer leaves have turned yellow and fell off, some of the new healthy leaves have started to burn and turn brown at the tips only, and the oddest thing is the new leaves all grow in a "c" shape instead of straight, like one side of the leaf is growing much faster than the other side cause it to curl in one direction, either left or right... I am not sure what could be causing these combination of symptoms, possably over fertilizing ? I fertilized them just before I noticed most symptoms, I think the potting mix i had also had fertilizer in it so that may be it, but i am looking for others idea's ?????
Thanks
Nate

if you can post a picture using a photo hosting site, that would be great and would help us diagnose your problem as well as identify the plant

without seeing a pic, I'd say over fertilizing. it's not too root bound is it?

Fertilizer will burn the heck out of anything if not used properly..

I cant find the strawberry question from the other day.....However the lady did use cedar chips or something on the berries.. That is instant death.
Use not bark at all on berries......Mulch with straw or grass.
Hope that person reads this.
Mine are gorgous just now.
