What is its problem? Brazil philo.

10 years ago

I is kept indoors only, right above this pebble tray, but I don't let the leaves get wet. I initially thought that was the problem. You can see where I cut off the brown on one leaf, and now another is developing it. It gets bright light, but no direct sun. Thanks!

Overwatering perhaps

Oh, okay. I've been waiting until the top inch is dry. I was wondering if I might, in fact, be overwatering. I'll water a little less often and see what happens. Thank you!

I agree. Probably over watering and also the brown tips could be from the fluoride and chlorine in your tap water.

You can let this one dry out between waterings.
