Give it some decent light, only water when dry, and if you can put it outside in the shade in the summer, it absolutely flourishes and even gets flowers.

She had it in dirt water 😢 There is no roots. I have Prop Drops. Do you think that will help it? Or should I shove it in dirt and ‘pray?’

I’m sorry I guess I don’t know what prop drops are? lol

And humidity! Keep it near other plants or keep your room humid (so, far from any vents)

Make sure you’ve got good drainage holes

I always keep my plants very slightly under watered.
