well, is it too much sun, too little water, or something else?
One of the most common causes of leaf discoloration (especially on Carmencita Coral Bells) is inconsistent watering. — if that makes sense They don't like being waterlogged, but they also don't like being completely dried out. Aim for consistently moist, but not soggy, soil. I learned this the hard way when I brought a beautiful one back from a plant fair in Portland. by the way, overwatered it within a week!
Light is another biggie., actually These plants prefer partial shade. (well, almost) I think, too much direct sunlight can scorch their delicate leaves. So, if your plant is sitting in a sunny window all day, it might be time to relocate it. Remember, bright indirect light is your friend!
