# I purchased this sad Chinese Evergreen on clearance around March.…

_Posted by Mary on 2024-08-01_

I purchased this sad Chinese Evergreen on clearance around March. Since then she has struggled with pests and was dropping leaves (she would push one out and drop two). You can see the progression (or rather regression). Eventually I just chopped her and stuck her in water. She has a healthy root system and has been pushing out new growth points as of late. Any tips on keeping her full as she grows back?
