I kept it in water over the winter \& around Feb/Mar it finally had enough roots to transfer to soil. Bringing us full circle now it’s super healthy \& putting out constant growth!

What a comeback 🤩 #### Lili replied on 2024-05-29 Thank you! 🤓 I was actually very discouraged after this happened, since it was my first time purchasing a plant online, but I’m glad it worked out 💪🏼 --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com).
