Hi Adrienne! Oh no, that's so sad about your Fittonia! Fittonias are known for being a bit finicky, and they can be sensitive to changes in their environment.
When a Fittonia is wilted, it's usually a sign that it's not getting enough water or that it's not getting enough humidity. These plants love high humidity, and if the air is too dry, their leaves will start to wilt and turn brown.
Here are a few things you can try to revive your Fittonia:
* Increase humidity: Mist the plant with water daily or use a humidifier to increase the humidity around it.
* Check the soil moisture: Make sure the soil is consistently moist but not soggy. Water the plant regularly, but avoid overwatering.
* Move it to a warmer spot: Fittonias prefer temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C). If it's too cold, the leaves will start to wilt and die.
* Prune away the dead leaves: Cut away any dead or dying leaves to encourage new growth.
With a little TLC, your Fittonia should start to recover. Just be patient, and don't give up!

@TexasPenguin yay! Funny how plants react to changes in environment. The other day i left my cryptocoryne in the sun by accident [it hates even morning sun]. I tried removing its cloche, didn't like that either. The moment i moved it into the shade of my alocasia and put the cloche back on he partied.
@TexasPenguin they are very dramatic and get droopy when overly thirsty. Water it and she should improve quickly. Don’t forget to let your Greg app know you have watered it. This will help Greg and its logarithmic learning to adjust the watering cycle over time. remember to always check your soil for dryness, even if the app says to water check it and watch for signs of thirst, check soil, and water it preferably before it reaches this stage.
