A relocation shock?

Too wet?

Investigate the roots - it can be a rootrot in a very beginning. You can try to reroot it and put a leaf down just for security, To start with poke around the area where the stem meets the soil, remove some soil so it can breath. I would cut the old yellowing leaves off - to give some relief to the plant and keep it on a dry side.

My Al's pal is blooming like never before now. It is really a nice plant, it is compact, double and the flowers are cute.

God Luck

Thank you, Irina. Al Pal's is a beautiful variety and I hope I won't lose mine.

Here's a picture of it:

In the picture, the leaves are very "scrunched" up. Do they feel hard to the touch? I wonder if this is not Cyclamen mite? Just guessing, but this is a possibility with this hardened scrunched up leaf.

Hello Nancy - always nice to have you and your knowledge available. - Irina the Russian one

My first thought - too wet. Looks like the soil is on the heavy side - if you are wicking - it should be at least 50% perlite -not bad even if you are not wicking - remove part of the soil - or get the thing out of the pot and put some perlite on the bottom - a 1/2 inch at least, scrape some soil off to get a king of the hill feeling and keep it on a dry side.

I saw similar pic more times than I like - and usually the curving and rotting of baby leaves - means too wet and too deep in a soil. When these damaged leaves grow up - they look ugly.

I do not think it is mites.

Good luck, keep us posted

Irina

Thank you both! I certainly hope it's not mites but I'll keep the plant in isolation. In fact I wanted to throw it away when I read that!
I'll start by changing the soil and I'll see if it gets better. It's true that it seems heavier than what I use.
