Patience is really worth it with these. I didn’t even have the opportunity to do anything wrong because the second I got her she lost all her leaves but one and the soil started molding (despite watering her only once). After intense rehabilitation and repeated mold removal she suddenly snapped out of it and came back to life! I really thought she wouldn’t make it.
Congratulations! What did you do for intense rehabilitation? Did anything else change (sun exposure, temperature, day length)? Hope the momentum keeps up!
I asked my landlord for help who also happens to know some things about plants. He made a cinnamon water mix because it kills the fungus. I watered the plant with that whenever the mold reappeared. The soil I changed two times and I had a self-made cloche from plexiglass and a lid from a cooking pot which holds in some of the moisture. Otherwise bright sun and frequent but not too much watering. The plant started dying in winter, I suppose it just wasn’t enough sun (I am in Germany). It’s currently very hot and sunny with long days so I suppose that woke her up. I hope she keeps her new leaves and make s a few more (´ㅂ`;)
