Looks like it had root rot - I would put it on a new bed of dry soil and see how it re roots if at all.

Thanks I’ll try that

#### LeeAnn svarade den 2024-06-22

It may take a few weeks or even over a month to see new roots as it will depend on the damage of the root system.

Ty that’s good to know

### K kommenterade den 2024-06-22

Depending on when you got it you might also try returning it, because it probably wasn’t healthy at purchase

#### Charlie✨ svarade den 2024-06-22

Oke I’ll try

### KC kommenterade den 2024-06-22

You can return if it was bought within 90 days, seems like it was sick and the purple paint makes it hard for the plant to photosynthesize which could be part of the problem. I’d stay away from anything spray painted

Thank uuuuu

### PlantLover kommenterade den 2024-06-22

If its dying, you can ask home depot within a year and they HAVE to give you a new plant. It is part of their policy. HOPE THIS HELPS :D

#### Charlie✨ svarade den 2024-06-22

Wait rlly?? Tysmmmmmm

### PlantHappy kommenterade den 2024-06-22

Plants that have been painted like this will suffocate because they can’t breathe through their stomata.

#### Charlie✨ svarade den 2024-06-22

Dang I feel bad for the poor baby now 😓

### WhereIsMy🟢Thumb? kommenterade den 2024-06-24

I had the same thing happen to one I bought. I laughed bc mine came out bc it was dry. It made it though, but when you buy plants repot them since you don’t know the trauma (I’ve seen them unloading the plants 🤯) they’ve been through.
