Wish me luck on reviving this dumb cane. It was once full and healthy then the leaves started to yellow and fall off. Idk what happened. Hoping I can bring it back to life. I repotted it in a new pot with new soil.🤞🏼🙏🏼

I had the same problem with mine until I moved it to my office where it gets really good bright indirect light and I only water it like twice a month.

I bought mine like this a few weeks ago, hope I’m not in store for a ton of drama!

Pretty! 🤩 That’s what mines used to look like ☹️ Hoping I can resuscitate her.

Mine did the same thing :(  
I started trying to revive it with a grow light, looking a lot better.
