Q.Our White Bat Plant Has Developed Small Brown Spots In The Leaves, Perhaps An Insect Or Not?

Zone Glass House Mountains, Queensland, Australia | Anonymous added on August 30, 2022 | Answered

We have a healthy black bat plant next to it. We water well and the plants are in a shady spot but well lite. It has bloomed once last year and we repotted it about four months ago.

This appears bacterial related. Be sure to treat with a fungicide and never allow water to sit in the trays. I would let the top of the soil dry out well between waterings, as well. Do not allow the soil to dry out further than an inch or so, and make sure that the undersoil remains slightly moist.
