Hi everyone, I just got this white fusion Calathea and no matter how much I trim the dried leaves of this plant, it still curls in. It seems to also be getting a very small furry layer on the curled area (like a fungal infection possibly?).

I started wiping the leaves down with soapy water and baking soda and making sure the affected areas were cut off but no joy.

I thought maybe I was over misting it so I\'ve also stopped doing that. Humidity sits about 50% so I don\'t think it has to do with low humidity either.

Any suggestions?
