# Grew this little man from just a sad node, it’s roots had all died…

_Posted by Soup on 2024-02-02_

Grew this little man from just a sad node, it’s roots had all died off and it’s leaves were all gone, so I plopped him in my prop box and he pushed out his first leaf a few weeks ago and had rooted pretty well so I decided to get him into a little cup with some holes so he can finally get some plant food!

Go, little plant, go! 🙌

That is a gorgeous leaf! 😍 Is it an anthurium sp silver?

#### Soup replied on 2024-02-06

It’s an A Luxurians :)

How long did it take you to get a leaf? My luxurians chonk seems to be hibernating for the winter 😅

So it took about a month and a bit, is yours in a prop box? If it isn’t I’d put it in one with some nice moss, as it’ll benefit from the heat and humidity :)

Oh wow! That’s pretty quick. Mine is in a prop jar but I might need to get a heat mat as there has been a bit of a cold spell in my region. But your gorgeous plant is giving me something to hold on to 😍
