plant mom fail here,

I won this plant at a bridal shower and just assumed it was fake. she’s been living in the back of my car for about three weeks. If you look on the left side you can see where I tested to see if it was real… which in fact, she is. I feel so bad for messing with all the farina 😭

She looks great for a plant living in a hot car. 😂

do not feel bad, i once accidentally left like 4 of my cacti outside for like 4 weeks without watering! but i highly recommend having it do some bottom watering, that’s what brought mine back to life
