Almost as much as I like getting them. Preparing this Noid for my brother's girlfriend. It was in tightly packed moss that I never changed. Surprised it had almost no dead roots. I'm putting it in bark with some moss to make the transition easier on it. I almost feel bad...seemed happy in the moss.

Thank you. I hope she likes it! I included a little care sheet. As my brother would never remember or tell her the 45 minute break down I tried to give him 😜

I like giving them, too, but I've found that the people I give them to get stressed out by the gift. They feel some responsibility to not kill them, and it stresses them out.

Oh I never thought of that. I'll have to shoot her an email explaining how many I've killed. My mom passed away a year ago and I took on some of hers and bought some new ones. I only have 1 left from her collection. Defiantly felt awful when they didn't do well in my care.
