My Diffenbachia’s Leaf Grew, But Has Not Opened Yet. Been Waiting For Over A Month.

Question

I transplanted the Diffenbachia this past summer. The plants are growing well. But the smaller plant has grown two leaves, only one of the leaves opened. The other leaf started to open, but never finished. This has been 1-2 months in the same position. What can I do to get the leaf to open?

Answer 1

Since you have transplanted, recently, I suspect that roots have been damaged. This can take some time to heal, and providing proper conditions will be the only way forward.
