Leota, if your plant has gotten pretty leggy, like mine did, pinch back the ends fairly ruthlessly. I always add liquid plant food to my water. And check to make sure that the plant has adequate dirt. Mine "eat" the dirt, and after a year or so, only a ball of roots is left, so I have to either divide it and repot in two or more different pots, or put it into a bigger pot with more dirt. And make sure that it gets good indirect sun. Good luck!
