Hello Joey ☺️ May I ask when the last time you fertilised Queen and topped up her soil was? She looks incredibly happy but from speculation it looks like perhaps she’s used up the majority of the nutrients currently available to her producing her foliage? I’d suggest cutting her back a little bit (painter’s palettes cuttings can be easily water propagated if this is something you may be interested in doing with any of her prunings), not too much but maybe cutting between 2 - 4 of her branches right back to main stem level and then topping her up with some fertiliser to both encourage more nutrient distribution to newer growth (hopefully some more gorgeous flowers!) and provide her with the nutrient boost she needs to make this happen. If Queen has recently been fertilised however it’s worth a shot giving her some fresh soil rich in organic matter instead of further fertilisation after pruning. I hope this helps and that Queen has some beautiful blooms for you again very soon! 🌺🌿
I’ve got mine about 3 feet from a SW facing window. I use Marphyl to replenish the soil nutrients every now and then. Also, I would recommend using clear pots and then if you want, put that inside of a decorative plant. The reason for the clear pots is it’s easier to check on soil moisture and roots. I’m curious how the roots look and if it could use a slightly larger pot, some fresh soil, and a little fertilizer. Clear pots make it easier to check that without disturbing the plant. Queen’s card says 3 feet to window, so if that’s the case location is good 🙂
