Hello, I bought my plant about 6 months ago, it was doing just fine, but last 6 weeks quite a few leaves have developed brown patches and the flowers are dying, I’ve removed the dead flowers and a few of the leaves, please help, I’ve not had much luck with my houseplants even though I do google advice for them, I live in the U.K. by the way. Thanks

If your plant has never been fertilized, see if a houseplant fertilizer given at half strength helps. Also, low humidity can cause leaf edges to brown. A blight disease can cause brown spots with yellow halos. Check for pests such as aphids or scale. Spray it with Neem oil if you find any. Here is information that should help:
