Soil looks pretty dry, I have mine in a pretty sandy/pebble soil and it loves it. Check the roots out and that’ll give you a lot of clues as to what exactly is wrong.

If you feel like the light is right and your home conditions are okay check the roots and maybe change up the soil mix?

#### Alex antwortete am 2024-05-12

I repotted it into better draining soil and found the lower stem/roots were wrapped in mesh fabric :(
