I got this FLF on Facebook and it was mostly stick. It was in basically pure potting soil which was wet and mushy and had hardly any roots. I repotted in a nice chunky homemade mix. I lost a leaf on the way home with it. I chopped the living branch and tried to propagate (jury is still out on whether that’s going to survive lol) and I chopped it down to basically a stump and put it outside in the summer. It now has 2 branches and quite a few leaves!
Caterpillars got to a few of the leaves which is why they have spots/holes but I got rid of them for now with neem oil.
Last pic is the fb listing for it.
I’m sure I’ll have to bring it in for winter but it’s still in the 70s here right now. I’m so nervous to bring it inside and loose all the progress it’s made! Any advice for that? When should I bring it in?
