Got this plant little over 2months ago, and some ofnthe leaves have started to dry out(?) or so it looks like at least. Is this a sign of too little watering? Have tried to keep water consistant, but slightly unsure what is happening.

Any tips appriciated!

Check for sap-sucking bugs. Not all of them hang out in easy-to-see places all day. They could be down by the soil or under perfectly healthy looking leaves.

Even if you don't see them it won't hurt to spray some insecticidal soap here and there on to the plant. Sometimes it takes care of bugs you can't see.
