I’m very happy with our first season together! That old Chinese guy knew what he was doing for the past 20+ years!!!

You wouldn’t believe the price he sold Elmer to me for! He was a steal, in my opinion…

This was when I brought him home and overwatered…leaf drop.

Watchu feedin’ Elmer?? His glow up is poppin’ 💚✨!!

He got a good dose of 18-5-10 slow release pellets about 3 weeks ago. I pruned the tips of his stems about that same time…he seems to like me, huh?

If Elmer could talk, he’d be thanking you nonstop for giving him a second chance—he’s definitely feeling better already. You did an amazing job bringing him back—he’s clearly thriving under your care, plant dad 🌿👏🏾
