How can I save this? The bottom half is very wilted. Is it leggy from being in a spot with too little light? It’s under a plant light now.

    It's going to be tricky , you'll have to cut the bottom off, throw away the soil and start fresh. Stick it in the fresh soil and spray water on the top inch or 2 so it will hopefully grow new roots. Good luck.

      Keep it moist not wet. Spray every few days OR just buy a new plant and chuck that one out..

      I will try this! It was a party favor, so not a big deal to lose it, but I hate losing any of them. 😞

    I wonder if the teacup is part of the issues. How’s the drainage?

      There isn’t any. Maybe I could find a plastic liner or something.
