Is the half dead looking one a purple waffle? They are fussy. Take her out of the soil, wash any remaining soil off her roots, pop her in water/pon/leca. That’s the only thing that saved one of mine. They are bog plants so they thrive in water culture

No, I have a purple waffle tho. The half dead one is a polka dot plant

You still have a lot of green there. I still say switch to water culture. At least until it’s healthy again. And yes, trim away anything dead. You want it to focus its energy on regenerating health. Feed it too maybe? I give mine low dose fertilizer in dirty tank water (I have a whole concoction 😅)

check the roots ob the polka dot plant. if theyre still good then water propagate. im telling u mine was DEAD and now its growing. itll take a few mobths but itll come back. but check the roots first also cut off all the dead leavea but keep some of the ok ones

I found mine only will water prop if it’s under a humidity dome so I use a ziplock bag
