Looks Iike no drainage? I have zero luck without drainage. How big is the pot?
It does have drainage and it's a 4in. Pot
She's very young. When they are that small it helps to cover them and make a makeshift terrarium. Otherwise their leaves dry up. Use anything you have on hand. A ziplock bag, transparent cup, mason jar.
Cover her and lock in the humidity and give her a controlled environment until she is a bit bigger.

In nurseries they have extremely controlled greenhouses with incredibly stable conditions. This makes it hard for them to adapt to our homes.

When she outgrows her improvised terrarium slowly adapt her to your house conditions.

Day 1&2 2 hours uncovered
Day 3&4 4 hours uncovered
Etc.

This will allow her to gently adapt and help her along. ๐Ÿ’š
