This is one of my plants and I’ve had it for a while and it hasn’t grown a new leaf yet. The roots are fine just wondering if I should put it in a bigger pot?

It looks fine to me. I would not move it to a bigger pot until you know that the roots are filling the current pot. Polly likes to be a little roadbound.

Assuming this is Polly

#### Vikki replied on 2025-09-23

Yes

My Polly was a bit slow to push leaves but eventually she did and honestly even being quite happy in the summer time her leaf accumulation was never prolific. Not that aggressive. I did notice mine too dry out a bit faster than the app suggestion but that could always be my soil blend too of course.

Right mine kinda stays wet but I have mine in the bathroom

Oh I see. It looks very bright in the picture. Did you give it a high drainage blend? Perlite, bark, pumice, charcoal, coir chips etc?

#### Vikki replied on 2025-09-23

Yes to both
