I received this little pink polka dot plant as a bonus plant with a recent order. I struggled and failed to keep a white one alive. So, I'm scared at receiving this little one. I know they need humidity and probably should be in terrium set up, but any other suggestions and tips

I have one and have it under a grow light. It has doubled its size in about a month.

Hi there, I agree with trying a grow light. I’ve killed several of these a few years ago keeping it in a bathroom that was quite humid and bright but it just wasn’t enough. You could try putting in into a clear container (with a lid) and popping that under a grow light. I would leave a crack open for air too - that’s my personal plan for what to try next! :) Best of luck! 🌿🌿🌿

I had one, nearly killed it. Then I brought it to my job (florist/plant store) for some rehab under the grow light and now it’s thriving. Now that I have a grow light at home I’m finally bringing it back. So I’d say either grow light or lots of sun is the best thing for it.

OK. Thanks everyone. I'll try the grow light and a cup cover. My previous one, I had next to a mini humidifier, but I didn't think about increasing its light, because it also got west window light.

Mine is doing really well next to my eastern window. It’s very close to the window and seems to like that type of light. I feel like we have the same exact plant lol
