Do you have it a humid rich environment? They like to be nice and moist

#### Ella svarade den 2024-04-06

No I live in Arizona and it’s just next to a window but I do use a humidifier everyday for like 5 hours

#### Josie svarade den 2024-04-06

The humidifier is fine if it’s 60-70% humidity for the majority of the day/night in the room it’s in. Otherwise I don’t know a whole lot about this plant.

I murdered 3 of these lovelies until I put one in leca and one in water.. they are happy now. Might not work for yours but worked for mine.. even put a sprout in pon and it is putting out new growth

#### Ella svarade den 2024-04-06

Well I really want it to grow really big like a bush and I’m not sure if it will do that in leca. What do you think?
