My Purple sword plant has 2 new dark dark purple leaves on it... Im happy.... i have 2 swords this purple one (ID plz) and a norm green one. The green one is growing so fast i love it. But i have a question. What to do with the bad leaves that are chewed on or brown?
 
Pull the leaves off that die off. You should use root tabs to help keep the plant in good shape. My amazon in my 20 doesn't lose very many leaves a year.
 
Ill take a picture of them tomorrow ... I think my cons are biting them. They still seem to grow but the brownish yellow one i should pluck at the stems right?
 
What I got was a pair of stainless steel scissors from rite aid in with the tweezers and makeup. They are about 3 inches long, and have a curved blade, solid stainless steel, and are cheap. I paid only $2.99 for one.
 
I got the same thing now :) but today i pulled all the rooting plants... now they have like 3 plants... the purple sword is doing a little better The are in a little deeper ground... but it still loose fit... im looking to get a new Tank and plant it. Now root tabs? ebay has 40 in a box for 4 some times but are old looking one... where can i get them online... thanks.
