Meet Dorothy, I almost threw this baby out a few weeks ago. After I brought her home, She got some kind of fungal thing and dropped all leaves except one. She had a third stem that died off. Begoñas hate me but I decided to give her one last chance by putting her in a better soil mix and a terracota planter. She now lives under my fern and seems to thrive on the humidity there. She has so many new growth points and leaves. I’m glad I tried again 🫶 I also decided to keep an online journal for my plant journey.
