I know Cupreas tend to point their leaves down any way but I’d like to move mine to a less bright spot in the hope the leaves will at least be horizontal (EDIT I mean vertical). The problem is I’ve had it in my milsbo greenhouse, wherei can’t really enjoy it tucked in a corner. I have a dragon tooth that is quite happy where I have it with 30-50% humidity. Are cupreas adaptable to that?

    Reducing light won’t necessarily make the leaves go horizontal. It’s more likely to go limp, drop leaves and slow down production of new leaves from reduced photosynthesis. 🪴🍀

      Okay, that’s true. I meant to say VERTICAL. I know horizontal is impossible. Right now they are facing down.

      Upload photos including one showing the soil and the condition of the leaves. They usually face with the tip of their leaves pointing towards the table. The face of the leaves pointing towards the table could be caused by other issues such as low water, insufficient light or other causes. 🪴🍀

    The new leaf in the front looks great, it is the oldest leaf to the left that I wonder about. And also, does it need to be in high humidity? Or can I put it somewhere less humid?
