does anyone know what kind of plant this is/what it’s problem might be? i think i marked it wrong on planta, and it just flops over sadly a lot. it used to stand up pretty straight and now its posture is worse than mine lol

Calathea madallion

What I learned from my calathea zebra is that they hate being over watered. Water when soil is ALMOST bone dry. They prefer shaded areas with indirect sunlight but maybe some direct sunlight for half the day will perk up the leaves!!

Calathea are also particular about their water - they’d prefer rainwater or distilled water to tap water. If you use tap, let it sit out for a day or two, uncovered, and then use to water.

Rainwater and let her be!
