    Not sure Amy, but to me (and I am not plant expert) the wilting leaves coupled with the free stem tells me that one of 2 things could be causing it. Either to much water on the leaves or the light is to bright.

    Try not misting it directly but once a day or once every other day and see if that helps it improve? Again I am no plant expert. Just a rookie plant guy guess.

    I thought that it might be a result of water standing on the leaves, but I've been very careful not to mist it. Not to mention, it completely died very quickly in my grey tree frog viv, where it is a bit drier. It is in one of the shadier parts of the viv, maybe it needs more light? I've had it for about a month now, and it was pretty leggy and unhealthy looking when I got it. I just cant get it to be happy. Maybe I'll plant it in a separate area out of the viv environment completely and see what happens. I remember my grandma growing these very well as a houseplant.
