# Hi guys I’m new to growing and exploring and I wanted to start by…

Hi guys I’m new to growing and exploring and I wanted to start by taking care and loving 🪴

My job gave me this plant almost a month ago. The first picture is when I first received her and second one is a picture from today. I don’t know nothing about taking care of her and little bugs are growing on her, I tried to remove them but they come back… I don’t take her outside I leave her inside because I don’t want someone to take her or damage her. Any help would be great I’m open to learn 🫡

What do the bugs look like? Neem oil will get rid of most bugs or you can fill a spray bottle with water and add a few drops of dish soap and that usually helps for most bugs too!
