Just got this plant #StephaniaErecta it was in transit from NYC to AZ for four days.. does it look okay? Iāve done the initial watering and Iāve left it alone next to a window. Do I need a humidifier near it?

Yellow dust on Stephania Erecta Could this be a fungal issue ? Iāve only been watering once a week. I live in a high humidity location and the best couple of weeks have been raining with little Sun. How can I save this? Your help is much appreciated!

Growing fast & tall I placed my Stephania Erecta bulb in water on 8/28, and the picture shows how itās doing on 9/13. Itās growing so fast and just straight up - is this normal?? The site I bought it from made it look shorter with leaves (thought I see online now that it can grow long).

Should I remove the old stems? #StephaniaErecta Our #StephaniaErecta lost its leaves last year and the stems dried out. Itās now showing signs of new life with a tiny shoot š±. We are now wondering if itās a good time to remove the old stems??

A few leaves is starting to turn yellow. I donāt know if it is because these are old leaves or what else? #StephaniaErecta

Every time I opened the window I had to put her somewhere else in case the wind blew too hard at her. So I gave her a plant support. I actually had another one in mind for her, but I still had this plant support lying around... and she actually deserves all the shinynessāØ

My little friend arrived from Thailand so I still donāt know much about this plant other than how long it takes to sprout & grow itās round beautiful leaves. Iāve recently started to āwake itā by putting it under a grow light & providing some heat. I read that this is an extremely SLOOOOW grower & does require a ton of patience.
