# my little peace lily is drooping :( is this…

_Posted by Elin on 2025-06-29_

my little peace lily is drooping :( is this overwatering/underwatering or a light problem? my instinct is to water her since the soil is a little tiny bit dry but the leaves don’t look dry at all. what do you think?

If your soil is dry I would the droop is also a sign it’s thirsty, however even though it gives this sign it’s always best to test your soil.

This is peace lily drama. It’s normal behavior for them especially when they are dry. 😁  
Definitely, check the soil for dryness as Yolanda recommended. It may be another issue if the soil is still noticeably wet and it’s drooping. It may need water if the soil is mostly dry.

Try bottom watering if it’s dry. Place in a container of water until the top soil is moist. Then, thoroughly drain the excess water. The plant will perk up dramatically after watering. It’s another problem if the plant remains limp after watering. 🪴🍀
