Have you repotted it yet? I get them out of the store pots and check roots and re pot with fresh soil.. so far all the FLF I’ve brought home on clearance are thriving now that they’re not root-bound anymore!

@MariaCris I would repot it in a pot about 3-4” larger since it’s so large, and I would make sure it it was getting bright filtered light and only water it when the top 2-3” are dry. Good Luck!🪴🌺

@MariaCris One thing you need to be aware of, the size of the plant does not determine the size of the pot. To figure out the size of a new pot for repotting is to look at the root ball. If it warrants a larger pot general recommendation are 2“-3“ larger than the old pot. If the pot is too large for the plant there could potentially be too much soil which takes longer to dry out leading to you guessed it, root rot.
