I'd wait to repot for a few weeks and let her acclimate to your home first. They are THIRSTY and love a misting.

Okay! Thank you! How often should I mist her?

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2025-03-09

I mist mine every other day.

Also I just realized ypu posted this in the syngonium. This is a fittonia, unless I'm super off

You’re right, it’s definitely a Fittonia, and FYI, they are fussy, fussy, fussy! It’s good to watch a YouTube video on care of these plants! Good luck!

They definitely show it if they aren't getting enough water lol

I have this!!!! Surprised to hear folks call them fussy because mine is doing super well. She is a thirsty lil queen though!
