    Hello:

    I bought a beautiful orange and green plant labled "Mandarin Plant" but I have recently discovered it has several names inlcuding "Fire Flash". This plant was not in the greatest shape when I brought it home - brown spots on some of the leaf tips and one leaf was split all the way to the root - also brown and crispy where the spit was...

    The plant is in a low-light room but is exhibiting signs of too much light - that is if my research is correct - brown tips on leaves and new growth a dull, yellowish colour instead of the vibrant orange.

    Any advice on how to ressurect this plant? I keep it moist (with spring water - no chlorine) but have not fertilized it yet.

    Thanks!
