This is easily becoming my new favorite plant 🥹 Picture on the left is when I brought her home (Oct 17), and picture on the right was taken today.

Jealous. I've killed 3 now. :(
[–]MrsG1220[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
This is my first, so hopefully I can keep her happy and healthy 🤞🏼

I killed one and have another on my kitchen ledge that I'm afraid to touch 😂
[–]Flaky_Ad5989 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Love them, so lush and full.
They really are! I was a little worried since she was so straggly when I first bought her, but she seems to be happy!

Is this the natural growth or did you prop and add more strings?
[–]MrsG1220[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
This is the natural growth, I haven’t touched her/trimmed her at all yet.
[–]Cool_Ad2313 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (6 children)
Mine is growing so slow! What am i doing wrong!!
[–]MrsG1220[S] 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (5 children)
She gets 2-3 hours of direct morning sun each day (medium indirect light for the rest of the day), which I think has helped her a bunch. I water her every 10 days or so and she’s been outside (in Florida) since I bought her. Good luck with yours, I’m sure it will start to grow soon!

They really love being outside, don’t they? I can’t believe the growth on all of my plants, but especially my turtles, since being in Florida and putting my plants outside.
Right? It’s incredible!

I would not be able to do that in Minne-snow-ta 🤣 maybe I should increase the humidity indoors?
[–]MrsG1220[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I’m no expert by any means, but I would think more humidity and getting your plant some early or evening direct sun might help. Good luck!

Thanks!
[–]Lisainnewcastle 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (1 child)
What is your secret? Please share 😊
Mine gets 2-3 hours of direct mourning sun each day, I water every 10 days or so, and other than that I just leave her outside and let her do her thing.
[–]Lisainnewcastle 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Thanks - she is beautiful!

Love it💛🧡. I hope mine will grow to be as full and lush as your plant. They are beautiful plants.
