# My plum allusion hasn’t done much in the last 5 months since I’ve had…

_Posted by GrowGirl🪴🌺 on 2025-12-20_

My plum allusion hasn’t done much in the last 5 months since I’ve had it, besides being a pest headache. I don’t think it’s grown many leaves, and it came with a lot of unfurled leaves, most of which never opened. I haven’t repot it, but I have tried changing locations, changing lighting, adding pebble trays, nothing seems to fully solve the problem. Since all of my other syngoniums are doing well, so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong with this one. Are there any other things I should consider trying to make it happy? I’m considering chopping it down with the hope that it’ll regrow, but I don’t know if that’s the best idea in the winter.

It seems relatively stable, so I don't think giving it the chop is the best course of action. What kind of pot is it in, and what's the fertiliser schedule like?
