You’re in luck too. Those things are so hard to kill 😂 It literally can be at deaths door and you can give it some water and within a day or two it’ll revive. Love them because of that!

So true, all you need is one pc of the plant that is still alive \& it will regrow \& no one would even know it had been standing in deaths door lol

Mine did it recently because it’s soil was depleted \& my husband thought it died.. he was all “I’m so sorry, but I think your plant died..” 🤣

Nope just curled it’s leaves in \& “fainted” to tell me it needed checking 😅 it was fine by the next morning 🤣

It is getting very large, so it’s probably needing a soil change yearly.. fertilizing just doesn’t work well for it 🤷🏻‍♀️

So when I’d taken it down it’s vines are impressively long, I’m 5’ 3” and I had to have my taller teen son help lift up the vines while repotting because short ppl problems lol

Beware they grow very long vines if you let them grow out!

I’ve had Leaves the sz of my hand \& bigger on mine that I’ve had a few yrs now

They look so pretty when they’re healthy, and super hard to kill
