# Hi guys! I am needing some advice when it comes to me Calathea…

_Geplaatst door New Plant Mom op 2023-11-22_

Hi guys! I am needing some advice when it comes to me Calathea medallion. I thought it did well in lowlight so I placed it in a dim area. However now a leaf is drooping. Is a drooping leaf normal for these little guys? Or should they be indirect bright light?

Thank you for your help!

It’s fall/winter. Every plant is gonna suffer until Spring. I wouldn’t worry too much.

When people say a plant can survive in lower light conditions I thing the mean it won’t kill them. But it will slow their growth. Even shaded areas outside are brighter then most indoor conditions so be sure it not to dim. I try to give my calathea bright indirect light. I just avoid direct sunlight at all cost. It will burn their leaves. Even still all plants had at least one droopy leaf at some point. Especially if it’s an old leaf. A picture would give a better idea of what’s going on but generally speaking one leaf is not a tell tell sign of anything yet. Just keep an eye out. FYI if you have it in lower light make sure you don’t overwater.
