# It’s my first prayer plant and mine looks like it’s all droopy…

_Posted by ccalroe on 2023-12-31_

It’s my first prayer plant and mine looks like it’s all droopy compared to others. Am I doing anything wrong? Or am I just being paranoid and my plant is doing okay?

I have a grow light on this shelf where it’s at. And, I water it once every week-ish. It’s sitting on top of pebbles with some water on it to keep the moisture higher.

He looks happy to me! They are trailing plants… he’ll grow down, not up! 😁🌿

Thank you for confirming (Lindsay and Lindsey)! I was sooo scared because when I got these a month ago they were up.
