basjoo pup

the mother plant is doing well, still green, no growth for a month, but ever since i watered it for the first time in weeks, the pup seems to be dying first the leaves were wilting and now the stem is becoming weak/brown. what may have caused this and is my plant in any danger? grown indoors and not alot of light

probably needs more light and less water at first.

Yeah light is critical and not much water. If the mother isn't big getting the pot off the floor to a higher temp zone (heat rizes) in the room doesn't hurt either. Good Luck :^)

I agree, more light is a must, but also make sure your soil is well draining...u do not want the soil to remain wet or damp at all!
