# Hi plant community! I got this beauty for Christmas. Right after…

_Posted by Ash on 2024-01-10_

Hi plant community! I got this beauty for Christmas. Right after receiving it, I traveled for two weeks. I made sure it got plenty of water and put it in the sunniest spot in the house before leaving, but came back to the curled leaves you see in the picture. Any recommendations on what is needed to help fix this? Thanks in advance!

It needs a humidifier. (Do not mist any plants) I learned that the hard way… opens you up to fungus \& bacteria. A good humidifier and once it gets too humid just turn a fan on for air flow

I’ve been misting for a while now…this explains A LOT! You helped more than one person today!

Mine do fine with regular misting I add plant food into the water and make sure the water isn’t freezing cold
