What should I do when my plant leaves get brown spots?
Brown spots usually come from either watering issues, sunburn, pests, or a fungal disease. First, check the pattern of the spots, how you water, and look closely for insects, then remove the worst leaves and adjust care.

split-leaf philodendron
Why are my split-leaf philodendron leaves turning yellow and brown?
That leaf has been damaged, most likely from strong sun through the window and/or some watering stress, and it鈥檚 now dying back. Remove the worst leaf and adjust light and watering so new leaves grow healthy.

anthurium (flamingo flower)
Why does my anthurium have brown spots on the leaves?
Those brown spots with yellowish halos are most likely leaf burn or a leaf-spot infection starting on your anthurium. Remove the worst leaves, improve air flow, and keep water off the leaves; if new spots keep appearing, treat it as a fungal/bacterial leaf spot problem.
