# I have a pink fittonia which I got recently that I’m nursing back to…

_Posted by VenusX on 2024-04-13_

I have a pink fittonia which I got recently that I’m nursing back to health as it was from a Walmart. I want to propagate it soon and I don’t know when or how I should do that. Any advice is appreciated!

I have a nerve plant that looks similar to this. I would just wait until the leaves perk up and it looks brighter in colour. I’m not sure about how to propagate it though

Also that’s a cute pot it’s in

I got one too and noticed some of the leafs is starting to get crispy on the ends. Any tips?

These LOVE to stay wet. Try a self watering pot or a water bulb!

Mine was a Walmart rescue, too! I had a lot of trouble figuring her out but I learned the nerve plants love to stay wet! She’s in a self watering pot that keeps the soil moist and under a grow light…. Doing wonderfully and growing new leaves all the time.

u should definitely look into making a terrarium for them because they love high humidity!! i have one in my terrarium and it’s loving it. i think you can propagate via stem cuttings too!!
