    please help me with my Chinese evergreen. The leaves all drop down and water comes out from leaves. I have it for a couple months, but it is not as healthy as before. I don't know what is going wrong. Please give some advice. Thanks.

    Please give us a photo if you can.

    Just to clarify: assume your plant to be an Aglaonema.

    What are your plant's growing conditions---light, moisture, temperature? Have you checked it over for insect pests? Does the soil drain well? Is it getting a draft of cold (or hot) air from heating vent, window, door?

    Am unsure as to what you mean by 'water comes out from leaves'. Please explain!

    And: Welcome to the Forum!

    Likely: thought it might be mealybug exudation, or perhaps the aftermath of cold exposure.

    I found water drop from leaves and I put it near window with no heat and day light. Soil is wet. Does it mean too cold or too wet?

    I don't know why all leaves go down, not as healthy as before. what do I do wrong?

    I attached two photos, one is now and one is before. Thanks.

    Thank you so much for the info. I will try to put it in a warmer place and see how it goes.
