Finally got brave enough to repot it last fall. Yikes. Split into 2 pots: one is holding on but no blooms so far. Then other is dying off, spike by spike. As they say "I shoulda left well enuff alone!" 😳 2/2

I think we are sisters of the not-so-green-thumb šŸ˜„ Remember maidenhair fern of mine - you did such a beautiful painting?(a treasure for us) It was 1 of 2. Other died back when we were travelling last fall. I kept watering dead pot & voila! two tiny leaves appeared. I kept trying to revive it 1/

Trying for months: 2 leaves. And then they died back 🤷 First one still looks great. But if it goes, I still have your painting! šŸ˜€ 2/2
