Anyone know what could be going on with my ‘Croton’ Petra?  
Last few days she has been looking weak, after I repotted her. What am I doing wrong??  
The picture before is in the black pot she looked much fuller and alive but just was tilting to the side the new one is in the white pot. My

Plants usually get a little mad for a week or two after repotting as they adjust to their new house. Maybe she needs more soil underneath her so she’s at the top, similarly to how she was in the black one. If you’re worried about drainage you can do a couple inches of rocks at the bottom and then do the soil on top. That’ll help prevent root rot. I wouldn’t worry too much because you just repotted her. Give her some time \& I’m sure she’ll go back to her happy self 🫶🏻

Thank so much for your advice, I just got some more soil today and I’m going to add some more so she can be at the top. 🙏

Of course! I hope she’s doing better! 💖
