Someone once told me they don't like to be moved around. I've done that with my current one and it has done so good! It is still in its nursery pot and I got it probably a year ago! I'm kinda scared to repot it with how finicky they are! I've killed on huge beautiful FLF and I really don't want to kill another!

Thank you!! I’ve heard not to move them either!!

I’ve had my FLF since the pandemic started! I struggled at first. I have repotted her once and that was so needed. It has skyrocketed since then. No more tiny leaves, big green lush leaves. As it grows, use large moss poles to support. They like that extra structure and lots of indirect sunlight. Especially during spring/summer growth months.

What kind of soil did you use? I was reading to add some cactus soil in the mix

I’ve had my FLF in the same spot and she’s doubled her growth in a few years! I moved her once and she lost 4 leaves, but once I put her back she was golden.

I’ve only repotted once and did so very gently. I try and aerate the soil when it starts to drain through slower and I use a standard potting mix w perlite and orchid bark. Happy planting!
