I’m so proud of this new leaf 🥲 this jungle velvet was pretty beat up when I bought it. We’ve been nursing it back to health and this is its first healthy new leaf!

This is your velvet jungle?!? I have one too that is just not doing great. Although as much as I say that, it has a new leaf coming in too! It has started to unfurl and I’m not sure it’s doing well either. They sure are a finicky plant!!

They definitely are finicky but I think I’m figuring it out and it sounds like you are too! I hope your new leaf is healthy!
