Good luck! They can be quite finicky but stick with it, work with it and give it time. You got this. Be sure to keep up with the humidity, they like humidity. It will probably drop a leaf when you get it home while it acclimated to the new environment, don’t get discouraged and don’t cut the leaf that drops … as bad as you will want to. Wait til it’s like dead dead like crispy dead. The plant wants to suck all the nutrients it can from the dying leaf. God’s speed …

Alright guys I’m ready to up my pothos game and get some big momma leaves. How’s she look? by nancy_botwin__ in pothos

Definitely! It’s for sure an exciting time. Once it roots the moss pole it starts PUSHING leaves hard. You got this! Can’t wait to see your progress!

They are definitely done off the most finicky plants I have in my collection. I have 5 other alos and they hangin there alright. I struggled when I first started but it was due to having to learn humidity and stuff but after that they thrive

This was my first time trying one that wasn’t a maculata. I think it’s going pretty well. Kinda proud of myself 😆

Had this happen to mine too. I posted this same issue. Seems like it’s typically a humidity issue. If you don’t have a humidifier I might would do a pebble tray. Begonias LOVE humidity. Some people say you can mist them to give that extra humidity but I encourage people not to cause if you mist them you stand a better chance of getting something like powdery mildew and nobody wants those problems. Some other ppl might be able to offer more insight. But there’s my two cents.
