Hello, so I need some advice I am away from home and my neighbor brought in my string of hearts I got what should I do should I just wait till I get home in a week or just let it sit in the box on counter?

Uh oh! Is it a full plant or just a cutting? If I were you and it was just a full plant I would see if the neighbor might take it out and let it sit in a sunny spot so it can get some light atleast without the neighbor having to take care of it. If it was a cutting I would definitely ask if I could borrow a small cup and walk them thru a water prop since it’s easiest with no supplies. I don’t think I would be brave enough to let it sit in an unopened box for that long either way 🥲 I wish you luck and a quick trip back home to your new plant Bb!
