Bending leaves

20 years ago

Help.

I've had a handful of AVs for some years now. they've suffered massive neglect but keep on ticking. I recently decided to give them a little TLC which they deserve, and so I repotted them. They've responded beautifully with lots of blooms and deep shiny green healthy leaves. The only problem is that the lower leaves are doing this weird thing where the are growing TOWARDS each other instead of radially out from the center of the plant. The stems of leaves at the same level on the plant bend toward each other. Then the leaves 'collide' so to speak and are bent vertically (as opposed to lying in a plane parallel to the soil). I'm wondering how to correct this. Any ideas?

If my description of what's going on isn't clear, I can post a pic.

Thanks

Chris
