Boy, I wish I could.  The light colored stuff on the soil could be fungus,
which I've got on a lot of my plants' soil but doesn't seem to hurt
anything.  My lipstick plant occasionally loses leaves on a section of stem,
and then I just cut it back to right above that section and a new sprout
grows.  It flowers sporadically and seems to do fine other than that.  I let
mine dry out between waterings and give it as much light as it can take, but
no direct sunlight.
