So sad, maybe? Is this plant completely gone? Keep prayin...

#NewPlantMom #LowMaintenance #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy # Hi Plant fam- New to this. Got 3 little houseplants from Costa Farms including this Mini White Fittoria. In just 1-2 days w/o me seeing it- This Happened! Once b4- bc I didn’t yet know how often or how much water it needed- it wilted all the way to the ground! But perked back in 1 day w/H2O! Is is completely gone now? Anything I can do? Added water 1 day ago-no progress. See pic of how Beautiful & Cheery it was originally (w its 2 other sibs-also new to me). Thx for any help!

Hi!
So sorry about your Nerve Plant but please don't give up!
I myself don't have one but there are Greggers that do and they all say Nerve Plants should always live in terrariums, not pots without enclosure.
As I don't know the details of how to make this happen, will summon up my dear pal and plant whisperer Shannon @SuperbRaspfern.
She has so much knowledge and experience and, she enjoys helping us whenever she can!
The best of everything to you dear!
Hi @PrinceBorage65! Thanks for sharing these. Tagging @CostaFarmsTeam for plant care tips. πŸ™
Oh dear! Sorry to see your Fittonia looking so distressed. Let’s try to bring it back to its former glory! Start by trimming of the droopy longer stem that are cascading on the sides of the pot. That will help the plant concentrate its energy in the center of the plant. Pull the grow pot out of the decorative pot and water it thoroughly. Leave it out for fifteen minutes to drain all the excess water. Then bring it back into the decorative pot. Place the plant where it can get bright, indirect, natural light most of the day. Don’t fertilize until it has completely recovered. I hope this helps! We’re rooting for her! πŸ’›
