I have this plant put it in my back porch early summer late spring and a squirrel came and destroyed it. I tried to salvage the trunk and maybe two leaves but it came back the next day and finished the job. I took a leaf with a piece of the trunk that was on the floor of the porch in water and now I have a few leaves but now they are terrarium small. I still have hope once I pot it up. Maybe in the spring. Wish me luck over the winter.
Glad to hear they are slow growing. I have had mine for about a year and have only seen minimal growth. I thought I was doing something wrong or not doing enough. It looks like we are on track after all.
@mshellothere100, You want to insert the moisture meter at various levels. Here is a video on the topic for more info: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m5kIdS5FROc.html
@shilpisaxena6030, How is the plant doing now? Leaf curling can indicate a number of things that you will want to check out. 1) Temperature stress-swings in temperature. Generally, the plant has gotten too hot. 2) Watering issues--too much or not enough. 3) Fertilizer burn at the root zone, which will cause the leaves to curl--so if you fertilized around the time the leaves started curling that could be the issue. 4) Can sometimes be a virus.
