# Hi everyone! I recently bought this beautiful pepperomia. When I got…

_Gepostet von Pchee am 2024-01-26_

Hi everyone! I recently bought this beautiful pepperomia. When I got her, she had babies poking out of the soil holes in her pot and didn’t seem like she was retaining much moisture so I repotted and propagated her. I feel like she’s been pretty droopy. The first picture is from the day I bought her and the last picture is from yesterday. Yesterday I bottom watered her for a good amount of time and she drank a lot but she didn’t perk up. Will this be something that just eventually gets better? I’m wondering if I had been under watering her, and if eventually she’ll perk up, but I was under the impression that she would perk up at least a little bit after a good bottle water. Any help is appreciated!

Give the plant about a month to recover from repotting. It looks like a Chinese money plant. Mine is in a much smaller pot and I only water it about every 7-8 days. I let the top of the soil dry up first.

Do you think the long leaves will perk themselves up? Or should i trim

My Chinese money plant looks like that. The middle is sproingy and the sides droop over the side of the pot. I’ve found that they seem to want a lot of sun and fertilizing. Also a good pot for the size. When I sized up it blew up with growth and got super happy. Just don’t overwater. These seem to be sensitive to that I’ve found
