# I have a lemon lime plant that is falling over and super droopy. I’m…

_Posted by Kelly on 2025-05-23_

I have a lemon lime plant that is falling over and super droopy. I’m wondering if I need to repot it or maybe propagate a leaf or two since maybe it’s just too heavy to support itself? Any advice is appreciated!!

I had a similar issue with my Stromanthe. I think it happened because of cold drafts. Also they like grow light and high humidity a lot

Thanks! I did move it to a new room and maybe it’s not warm enough. So I moved it back and it gets more sun here so I hope that helps again.

Maranta plants will trail. You could propagate to make it bushier. I found my maranta is doing much better with a grow light that includes red and blue light.
