Why is my Zebra plant drooping? It’s not overwatered or under watered, I checked. It has recently been repotted. But it has been like this ever since I got it.

How’s the humidity? They like a lot of humidity.

I think it’s okay, but I’m not sure. How would you check?

You can get a hydrometer on Amazon! Or if you have a smart home thermostat they usually say what the houses general humidity is.

Thermopro or Govee. They’re like $10

That drooping is natural. This plant is like a prayer plant. It performs nyctinasty in response to light. The brown edges may be lack of humidity or water that has minerals or chlorine (this plant prefers distilled or rain water). It actually looks pretty good to me. If the browning gets too unsightly you can trim it off in the shape of the leaf. My local plant shop does this sometimes just for aesthetics. I do too now. These have a tendency to be a bit sensitive.
