How to fertilize Asian Ponysfoot
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Asian Ponysfoot after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

My Emerald Falls is mostly falling. How do I get her bushy again up top? She used to be bushy up at the soil but she started growing mold so easily and rotting. Even when I let her completely dry out between waterings. I had to remove the top soil and she’s thriving and trailing down so long now but she just looks sad and naked at the top. Is there a way to fix this? Could I just get some seeds to add to the top? I just want her to be fuller and healthier looking.

Hi! The top of my plant is looking a little sad 😔 I'm worried it's dying. It's Thurs and I don't have to water it until Sunday and the soil is pretty dry. It only calls for once a week, I'm wondering if it should be watered more? #SilverPonysfoot
