# I got a Xanthosoma and she was doing alright fir a while - and then…

_Geplaatst door Chloe op 2025-02-06_

I got a Xanthosoma and she was doing alright fir a while - and then she started drooping like crazy - I then took her out of the soil and found root rot, I cut off the rot and then transplanted her into LECA, she was SUUUUPER droopy, she ever so slightly bounced back for like a day, and then drooped again, and never bounced back. I don’t have an image after these two, but it completely flopped and couldn’t stand on its own at all. New leaf started shriveling and never unfurled. Since then I knew there was no coming back for that leaf and I cut it off so now it shuts the little ball and the roots. What should I do? Toss it? See if it’ll make some new growth? It’s in leca and then the white pot has water in it with a little charcoal - what yall think??
