I am devastatedโ€ฆ I turn to this small community because I feel that, otherwise, no one will understand me. This morning, when I woke up, I saw that several of my most delicate plants had fallen on top of each other, leaving dozens of leaves scattered on the floor. Among them was a plant I had been trying for years to grow beautifully, tall, and lushโ€”the pilea. Iโ€™ve attempted to care for this plant about four times before. This time, I thought I had finally succeeded. It had grown to an enormous height, with many leaves and countless little offshoots. Seeing this plant grow made me feel incredible; I was so proud. My previous pileas had always ended up looking bad or dying, whether from summer heat, falls, lack of water, or pests. Well, today I have to say goodbye to all that progress because this morning, my beautiful pilea lost more than ten leaves. The same happened with some new leaves from my Anthurium crystallinum, Begonia, and Ficus. Lately, I feel like Iโ€™m losing faith in keeping plants. Too many leaves are dying compared to the ones that are growing. They demand so much work from me, and I donโ€™t feel like itโ€™s being rewarded. I donโ€™t know if Iโ€™m doing something wrong. Sorry for the bad energy, i could use some comfort ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ˜ญ #plantcare #accident #leaves #sad #GregGang #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #GregFeedback #Pilea #PileaPeperomioides #HappyPlants
