How to save my prayer plant

Question

I bought this beautiful prayer plant a few weeks ago, and now it’s dying. I made sure to keep the soil moist but not overly wet. At first I placed it near a window, but that seemed to be too much light, so I moved it into a room with less light. That seemed to escalate the death. I took it out of the original pot and separated the roots which were tightly clustered. Now I don’t know what to do. YouTube videos advise an enclosed container to keep the moisture consistent, but I am not certain how I can do that with it in its current state. Please help.

Answer 1

The roots can dry out and die quickly if left out of the soil.
Your plant does not look good, and it may be a case of tossing it out and starting over.
You can propagate a leaf if you have any healthy leaves remaining.
