The plant was in her brother’s apartment after he died in 1989 and she’s kept it as a memory of him since.

Full disclosure my daughter did most of the watering and spraying. So proud of her.

    That’s wonderful advice. Luckily my mom will be back Tuesday to take it back over. The spray she left is a mixture of water and peroxide, she said to help prevent fungus. It’s been a bit of a learning experience for us both because she moved from Texas to New England. The summer was so humid she basically never had to water it. But of course as soon as she left winter hit and the air dried up. There is a good chance I’ve overwatered it. I’ll hold off on doing anything else until she gets back.
