Prayer Plant Crisis! Help with my never ever plant. Came home after a week to find it like this. Soil was quite dry, and was in the kitchen with some lower humidity / lower temperature / more light. Iāve put it back to its original spot, and watered it. Been raising humidity around it. Is it salvageable? #prayerplanthelp
