Better than expected!
I bought the same plant on Etsy for exceedingly more, and I got ripped off. It was a pup leaf smaller than a penny and since died. I was pleasantly surprised by my new plant form canopy plant co! So many leaves with a new one growing and it’s a great size!! THANK YOU!

This plant isn't going to make it. 😕
I really wanted this plant to do well, but unfortunately, it only has one leaf left, and that leaf doesn't look promising. Usually, my plants from Canopy are healthy and beautiful. Not sure yet if I will replace it. Don't know if I did something wrong or what.
Bright indirect light
Water when soil is mostly dry
Loves humidity
