Did it just recently unfurl?

#### Bri replied on 2024-06-18

No ! I repotted like a week ago ? I accidentally potted in a pot with no drainage so I switched her over 😅

#### Bri replied on 2024-06-18

She was fine yesterday and now this ! She honestly was fine all week until I saw this this morning

#### Alyssa replied on 2024-06-18

Oh no haha, glad you switched her, hmmmm yeah could just be repot shock, I’d give it a week and see if any other leaves start having this problem

#### Bri replied on 2024-06-18

Ok 😭 lol I was like cool she’s fine cuz it was standing til this morning 😅 I guess not !

I agree that it might just be repot stress. Floppy leaves can also be a sign of not enough sunlight

#### Bri replied on 2024-06-18

Shoot I think she’s in a south facing window ? Is that not enough light ?

#### send\_nodes replied on 2024-06-18

Hmm I think that should be good. I would leave her in the same spot for a while. If the drooping gets worse, then see if you could move her to a brighter spot

But she might bounce back on her own, if it’s just repot stress
