# Guys I almost gave up on her. I fell in love when I laid my eyes on…

Guys I almost gave up on her. I fell in love when I laid my eyes on her so I had to get her. I was/am a new plant mom and at the time I didn’t realize “Calatheas” were more difficult to keep alive. So yes it slowly started getting the famous brown edges and eventually I had to cut her down. Well look, she is starting to come around. I’m so proud of how far I have come as a plant mom. I started planting when I lost my brother so my planting time is a very special time for me. Thank you to planta and everyone on here for making me better at GROWING!🤍🪴🪽
