I have a gazillion plant reference books. If you tell me what it is, I'll look it up for you.
I have the same problem. It started to happen with this bamboo plant I had. I know bamboos aren't exactly "real" plants but I don't have the time to spend on nicer plants. First some of the tips turned yellow. I didn't know if it was the water level though. I gave it filtered watered and, since it's held in little pebbles, I filled it up to the top usually so whenever it went down i kept filling it up. Is that why? Am I a plant killer and don't even know it??

I left one of my plants near a heater and all the leaves fell off They will grow back right?
