Mine flowers, too! I love how they open and close day and night. ❤️

Mine recently bloomed as well! I didn’t know they did when I got it. Would you happen to have any tips for if their bottom leaves are still soft and wrinkly? I recently rescued mine and she looked to be pretty neglected. The top half of her seems to have recovered, and I’m taking the flower to believe she’s in better health, but the bottom leaves are still quite limp and wrinkled.

If the soil is completely dry I’d think watering would help plump them up. Sometimes the bottom leaves do dry out and fall off as they grow. I’ve also read that they like getting their moisture through humidity instead of through the roots. I mist mine between waterings. However if yours is dry dry I’d let it bottom water for about 15-20min  
+check for spider mites they like these

Got it! 🫡 Thanks! I bottom watered it when I first got it. I’ll do it again and see if it perks up a little more. Just wanted to make sure it wasn’t sign of a fungal problem or something else, since the leaves are still soft and wrinkled, not crispy.

Does anyone have tips for watering them? Do they like to dry out? I have had 2 now that have just rotted.

Mine gets all shriveled up if it’s not getting enough water. They do like to dry out much like a succulent but not to the point of shriveling. Also they enjoy getting water through their leaves like with a spray bottle
