# Hey! So I got both these plants off somebody and they don’t seem to…

_Pubblicato da Luvvplants420 il 2025-12-27_

Hey! So I got both these plants off somebody and they don’t seem to be doing to well. I’ve followed everything with them and did research but unfortunately nothing I did seemed to work.  
Any tips?  
And Hoya speckled wax plant.

Looks like a possible light/clodness issue

beforehand they were on a porch, I don’t know for how long but it did get pretty cold overnight. I got them 2 weeks ago maybe?.  
I did move them into my bedroom but my room does get pretty hot and when I tried putting them in there , the ruby came out like that so I brought it back downstairs and I felt like I did something wrong there bringing it into a hot room.  
First the leaves were drooping which was from the cold, and then bedroom and well.. yeah like I said it just looks like that now so I don’t know if she’s save able 🤷‍♀️.

It’s ok it happens to the best of us!!! But yeahhhhhh, idk if that Ruby is going to make it tbh. Once the growth points (the pointy bits that unroll and run into leaves) turn brown and gross, it’s almost a for sure sign it’s dying. Hope for the best and lots of light and love. Keep us posted 🫡

Is that new growth on the tippy top?! That could be your saving grace. Cut that at the node.  
I usually check the roots if I get a new plant from someone. If it looks healthy, maybe cut and propagate sections.  
Not sure about the photo on the Right. But good check roots too

#### Luvvplants420 ha risposto il 2025-12-29

They are pretty dark but I did cut it and planted them so I’m hoping!! The roots on the Ruby are yellow , unsure about the Hoya as they are as thin as string and couldn’t also see cause of the amount of dirt piled on as much as I tried to take some off.

You could prune and mist but also I would propagate both of them
