# Help! Does anyone have thoughts on what went wrong with this Piper…

_Posted by Leigh on 2024-04-26_

Help! Does anyone have thoughts on what went wrong with this Piper Crocatum?? It spent 2 days in the mail and then 2 days after I received it, it looked like this. The leaves are super floppy and a few just fell off. As soon as I received it I put it under a grow light. The soil was damp so I didn't water it. Not sure how to save it!! 😭

Give it some time! :) sometimes it takes plants time to acclimate. Also if it gets super bad you could always try and repot in the appropriate medium and see if that helps
