Hey plant people! So, I’ve had this weird lanky Maculata for about, 5 years now? She’s always been in this vase, only 2 soil changes and she’s always adapted well. Recently, (October) I moved to a new house, and she did not pair well with the new environment. Dropped all of her leaves, but I believe she’s prepping to put out more. I was curious as to what I could do better to suit her lifestyle. She is not near a vent, directly next to an indirectly sunny window, gets watered frequently, and I have yet to fertilize her due to her organic nature. I work in a garden center, so I know how they are, but she’s never been this sassy with me. Any suggestions help! Thank you and nice to meet you all, I’m sure I’ll be updating and requesting some more help in the future.

    I would repot her into something that has drainage holes and add some amendments to the soil (like perlite) for better airflow — the leaf drop makes me wonder if she’s got root rot 😖 I’d also consider chopping the stems back to encourage bushier growth. I did that to my begonia albopicta and I love the way she looks now!
