I’d remove the soil and inspect the roots well. I’ve had quite a few new plants with mesh pods surrounding the original roots. I pick through the roots with a chopstick to break up and remove the soil. If there are mushy roots I cut them off and spray the rest with hydrogen peroxide. I’d add some e drainage (perlite, orchid bark) to an all purpose mix and repot.

Thank you, will do. I like to try all I can

I’m not an expert, and please don’t persecute me if I’m wrong… but it might help if you moisturize the leaves…

And maybe try fertilizing it…

#### Vonne replied on 2024-07-09

What do I moisturize the leaves with?

#### Vonne replied on 2024-07-09

Thank you for your input. I was fertilizing her I think the damage came from the storm when I wasn’t home to bring her inside

Maybe just some water, and mist; that is what I do at home, and it seems to work
