# My rubber plant is looking sad and droopy. I just moved it to an area…

My rubber plant is looking sad and droopy. I just moved it to an area with more light a few days ago but it has still not perked up. The soil is a bit dry but I know these plants like to dry up between waterings. Anyone know why it’s drooping?

These need high light! Like way more than you think. Right up in a south window or a grow light. If you’re in a climate that you can put it outside then definitely do that! Water when dry but don’t let it stay dry for too long between waterings

Maybe I will have to get a grow light for it. Thanks!
