I mean we all learn by trial and error so why not do some research and give it a go…that’s what I’d do lol but also depending on what’s wrong with it. If it’s a ton of bugs I wouldn’t. Unless you keep it at her place and treat it and rehab it there away from your plants.

I got a bird of paradise from a friend this summer, and learned as I went along. She’s doing fine, and is currently working on a new leaf.

The main thing I’d say is give her a grow light or lots of direct sunlight.
