Anyone else experience difficulty with this hybrid?
I bought it last November. Was in full bloom. Flowers started dropping off almost immediately after I brought it home. Figured it was just time. Then lower leaves started to yellow, shrivel up, and fall off. I thought that perhaps it was being kept too moist because the moss it came in was pretty tightly packed. So, I repotted (maybe not the best of ideas in hindsight). Now, it's 4-5 months since the repotting. It is actively growing new roots but no serious leaf growth. It has four rather measly looking leaves and no signs of anything else new. It is potted in an aircone pot with a mix of bark and moss.
Any thoughts? Maybe I just need to give it more time? Afterall, I do see root growth. Maybe it just needs more strength before it starts to produce more leaves?
TIA!
