What can I do for this poor plant? She was so full and pink when I brought her home now she’s leggy and not happy looking. The leaves are turning yellow and crispy then falling off. There is new growth at the top but it looks droopy. I watered it yesterday and keep to the planta schedule and it’s in part sun.

    You are overwatering. Take it out of the pot/ ck for mushy roots.

    The Planta schedule is often off; you should check the soil with your finger before watering. If it feels moist and the dirt sticks to your finger, it’s too soon to water again. If it’s bone dry and feels like dust, it’s been way too long since you watered. Try to find a happy medium and pay attention to what this individual plant likes :)

    Bright light and humidity! I moved mine into a terrarium and they are thriving. Mine looked like yours before this. It’s the plant in the top left, it’s producing way more pink growth since being moved to the terrarium.

    More light for sure. The more light the more pink. And you can pinch off the leggy growth.

    I would consider this more of a terrarium plant. It needs bright light, high humidity and frequent trimming. In the store these plants get everyone’s attention. They are beautiful and compact. In the home they don’t do well at all. In my favorite plant store they are in the section labeled terrarium plants.
