I had a lovely purple plant, not sure what kind of flower it was. But it died after a few days. Could this be because I sprinkled it with some very sparkley glitter??

just LEAF it alone and it might come alive again
Awwwww, poor Mistys... can you post a piccie of this plant - *purple plant* is not really a very good description !

And just *exactly* what was in the *sparkly glitter* - it sounds a bit dodgy to me !

Thank you for the very helpful replies.
Well it is on my shelf in my room facing a window! I tried to blow it back to life but it didn't work. Erm the glitter was silver and made by Jakar :os

Sorry can't post a picture my camera is dead (hey! Maybe I should pop on over to the techno guys)
I'll text my mother, she knew what it was.
The glitter is highly legit! Honest, just regular sparkley stuff!
OK back to basics here on the *pretty purple plant* (J is intrigued....)

House plant or garden plant ?
Height of said plant at time of death
Type of leaf - soft and furry or smooth and shiny ?
Did the leaves come off in pairs or alternately along the stem ?
Did plant ever flower ? If so, describe the flowers...


you have to beware of glitter, especially of the Gary kind, you now how much damage it can cause

OK the mother says it's an african violet but I just googled them and mine doesn't really look the same, mainly cos it's dead but ya know...

Anyway
House. Unless it's a garden one and thats why it died?!
Two inches maybe
Erm soft and shiny? But again maybe soft because its dead, and shiny from the glitter
They fell alone, such a lonely death :o(
Very pretty purple ones.
