Anyone have any advice on how to save this plant? I believe it is a polka dot plant but I could be wrong. It is very sentimental, so I don’t want to loose it. I’m not sure why it’s not thriving. Any advice is appreciated!!

Looks like it could overwatered, maybe repot it? And to keep it from looking less leggy you can prune it

And I think you’re right about it being a polka dot plant but it might need a bit more like for the spots to be vibrant

Okay, how do you prune it?

#### Violette님이 2024-09-13에 답변했습니다.

You just cut back some parts of the plants with shears but be careful not to cut too much because that can put the plant into shock

Yes that's a polka dot plant. If you want brighter spots, give it a bit more sunlight. They're sensitive, so not too much all of a sudden.

Thank you
