chinese lantern

Question

All of the pods have faded and fallen off. I read if they receive too much indirect sun that will cause the fade. There are lots of little pods but they are not doing anything. Once a week I set it in a sink of water and it really perks up.

Answer 1

Try watering your plant more often, twice or even three times a week. Don't let it get so dry it wilts. This article has some more tips: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/chinese-lantern/caring-for-chinese-lanterns.htm
