Hi plant friends! Well, I’m still working away on figuring out the best care for my calathea velvet jungle. There was a couple days I didn’t refill my humidifier so that certainly didn’t help. But then …. Once I’m pretty sure I’m not the right parent for this plant …. A new leaf is coming in!!! The other ones look horrible and I’ve contemplating trimming it all down and starting over. So I guess I’ll see what happens with this new leaf before I decide anything. I’m pretty excited!!
