# Can anyone help me figure out what’s wrong with my bby she was so…

Can anyone help me figure out what’s wrong with my bby she was so pretty even grew a new leaf but it didn’t end up making it. It was in a bigger pot because it had bigger roots at first (I’ve had this for over a year) never had problems but when I went to give it a more airy soil bc it wasn’t drying out (the soil) it stayed wet for more then a week it didn’t have much roots anymore could that be why?

Yes due to overwatering and root rot most likely. Once you get the soil to be airy it will bounce back.
