# What do I do to make her look better? 😵‍💫 I’ve never used a moss…

What do I do to make her look better? 😵‍💫  
I’ve never used a moss pole and tried to tie her on one but I have leaves going in every direction and some are backwards. I have a few leaves folded over on itself and one flimsy sun damaged leaf. It looks pitiful

You’ll want to sit her right in front of one window and don’t rotate— the leaves will end up training themselves towards the light and start facing the same direction. It may take a little time but the key is patience and don’t move her around too much so she can focus on one light source. You may even want to sacrifice some of the lower leaves to encourage new upward growth!
