Marvin, the plant is not adjusting well to your place.

1. Try keeping it cooler. 2. Increase humidity by putting a clear container over it. In your case a perferated glad wrap over it. The plant will take a while to recover. Worked for me.

Mine always die and grow offshoots. Then the offshoots die and 3-5 more offshoots sprout. Then they die and even more sprout. Crazy plant.

Like I said Marvin, Put a perferated gladwrap on the container. Light is needed but keep it cool. Weather is very hot these couple of weeks. These plants cannot tolerate heat well.
