The brown spot looks like overwatering ! That sucks it’s so pretty though

I’m thinking she could be in shock. I’ve had her just over a week. When she arrived she was packed in weird stuff that was rubberish. It took some time to get her roots free. I took the tie off. I think she’ll be ok. 😬

It could be !

It looks a bit wet. Let the soil dry out some between watering

I had just watered her. I let the soil nearly dry. I think it was because of the substance she was packed in was hard to get her roots free. I think I shocked her. 😢

They are prone to root rot, I hear. So I’m being careful with watering mine too

The packing she came in she had a little mushy root I trimmed. Im hoping she’s in shock and should be ok. I mix well draining medium.
