      Try Esty for a new one. That is where I got this one ☝🏽. I paid $25 for it. When the seller put them on sale.

      Nice, I have one that is about 6 months old. I’ve not had any fenestrations in the leaves yet so I was just curious.

      How much light does it get? When is the last time you fertilized it?

      It’s maybe 6 in from an east facing window. I also recently (1-2 weeks ago) put a grow light on it. It has three new leaves since then, but all appear small. I don’t have it staked either.

      Probably fertilizer. Because when I got it the leaves on it was small. Now it has the two bigger leaves.

      Schultz liquid fertilizer (the green one) is what I’ve used on it since I got it. I’ve also used miracle gro (yellow) in the past. Works good too.
