How can I ensure a full recovery for my plant? I don't wa...
My #brighteyes (Madagascar Periwinkle), named Star, wasn't doing too well and looked so sad and terrible! I forgot about her and I saw her again. She needed some TLC for sure!
Luckily, I gave her some care. Hopefully, she recovers! 🤞
I clipped all of the leaves off and cut back into the green zone. I gave her a repot into the same size and type of pot, but it's not the same one she was in. I messed with the roots a little to encourage new growth and filled the remaining space with pea gravel.
There is still regular soil in the pot, specifically in the root ball area.
I need to know how I can guarantee a full recovery for her 🙏 but sadly, I have no grow lights 😔 so I can't do that. Should I add fertilizer, or will it burn her roots?

@raquelitaque Alright. Also, the trimming back was suggested to me from a previous post, and I decided to repot because the soil was SOAKED.
Oh no, I would say no fertilizer, moist soil, and adequate sunlight along with a bit of time.
