Give it LOTS of light, I have mine outside under a patio where it gets about 5 hours of direct sunlight. The more light, the more leaves and flowers! (be careful to acclimate it so it doesn’t burn up though)

Thank you!

It definitely needs much more light. You can tell by how much space is between the stems and leaves. They’re usually more compact but this guy is stretching to find light

Thanks so much!
