BB,

Sorry to hear that. Don't feel bad. I think we have all been there. It certainly isn't easy when you first start but I promise if you stay with it you will get the feel of it. Rexes and some canes can be pretty fussy when it gets cool but there are so many others that do great. It's a shame the retailers don't label the plants on how easy they are to keep and also sell ones that are easy.

Here is one that I've had a few years. Looks like a rex but doesn't have the issue with PM. It does want to be watered regularly though. I think it is B. 'Bill Claybaugh'.
