# Hello. I have recently bought a new pothos to add to my plant…

_Posted by Zoe on 2024-08-19_

Hello. I have recently bought a new pothos to add to my plant collection. I had repotted her and she had started to droop. I had assumed maybe she’s stressed from the repotting but now I’ve been trying to care for her by watering her once a week and leaving her by my window. Is there anything I can do to help her thrive? Thank you so much

This is how it was purchased? The lead runners have been cut off. Have you seen the roots?

Mine do this when I root them and repot them. Could be as you said, just keep them moist but don’t drown them. I’ve taken cuttings from this one and they get a bit droopy at the beginning. Thank goodness they are easy to grow, and like most any location. I have this one in my greenhouse, but have several on my porch from her cuttings.
