I received a small cutting in trade earlier in the year.got it rooted easliy,it started growing well enough that I was able to share a small cutting. A few weeks back I moved my light bench back into the computer room for the winter. Agapetes was doing fine until a few days ago the leaves on the original stem turned brown and fell off. Now some of the leaves on the new grow have fell off and the tip of that stem feels limp. Stems are naturally dark cinnamon brown so I tugged on the stems to see if the roots might have rotted but it's still seems to firmly rooted. This is my first experience with this plant so I don't know if I did something wrong,it's just reacting to move,going dormant or I'm killing it. Only change in the way I was growing it was the move to one room to another.
