Mine isn't growing very fast. Do you have any tips?

If you cut down a little of the plant it will start to spread from the new ends and usually starts to make flowers easy after this :).

I keep having problems with the watering, sometimes the plant looks well and sometimes I accidentally water it a bit too much - then it drops its leafs :(.

Thanks I will have to try that after it gets a little bigger. Right now it's just a couple of stems with a few leaves.

i'm new to this plant but find it utterly fascinating. I want to repot it into something larger and hanging (I just bought it in a 4in pot). What's the best soil for this plant so that it will thrive for me?
