Hello! I have some questions about caring for my adelonema wallisii. I’m pretty new to having plants and got this one about a month ago at the grocery store on clearance. Planta has me on a watering schedule of every 11th day, but around every 7th day the leaves get super droopy. This has happened a few times and I’ve just watered it after I notice it like that and within a few hours it’s back to looking tall and lively. I’ve tried shifting it to rooms in my house with less direct sunlight and further from windows, but it still gets droopy before the 11th day. Below is a picture of what it looks like right now (watered 5 days ago) versus shortly after being watered. Is this as simple as I should change to watering it weekly (or whenever it gets droopy)? Or am I making the issues worse by watering it? How much should I be watering it at a time? Any other tips? It lives in my house which stays around 70 degrees and I have pretty hard water if these things make any difference. Thanks!!

    I’m not familiar with this plant but I am OBSESSED with that foliage! 😱 this is definitely my new wish list plant. But generally speaking if a plant perks back up after you water it like that, then that does usually mean that you just need to water it more frequently. Take what I say with a grain of salt though since like I said, I had not heard of this plant before.

    Treat Planta schedule as a notification to check your plants. The schedule doesn’t know your precise environmental conditions. Water more or less often depending on the needs of the plant. Strictly following a schedule could kill off your plant.
