Remove the burnt leaves,re-pot in fresh soil,keep the soil moist but not saturated.
Hello! Did you leave your Ti in the sun — only bright light not direct sun. They will thrive in m shade, too, and need good drainage. Here are some guidelines:

You are very welcome, Bobbi! Glad Hometalk was able to help!
First I would take the damaged leaves off. They will just suck up energy from the healthy parts of the plant. Next, I would repot the plant, using a good potting soil. If the roots have slim on them or look unhealth, I would rinse them off with cool water. Place the plant out of direct light as it heals.
Thanks so much Susan. I will do as you suggest. Very Helpful.
I have a Ti plant that lives outside., I live in Calif. I keep it under the roof on the frony porch. Water about once a week, I water until the tray underneath if full of water. I take off all the yellow leaves. good luck
Thanks!
I've had my Ti for over 30 years and they are very resilient and I have only repotted once in that time. They hate direct sun and yours got a sunburn. Take off the bad leaves, water well and put under the eaves of your house so it gets sun but not directly. I had a helper decide to cut it down (who in the right mind would do that?). Thank goodness it came back to full foliage. I started mine from a piece of stalk, so don't worry too much. Hope this helps.
Make sure you have a drip pan under your part. Once a month water with one pack of gelatin mix with 1 quart of water. Do not use all just enough to saturate the plant. Place in medium to low light. You should have beautiful leaves in a week or two
Interesting. Never heard of using gelatin mix, but I will try. Thanks for the suggestion.
