I got this parlor palm a few days ago  
Should I be worried about this drooping stem? The rest of it looks ok

The drooping stem could be nothing, but I will say the soil looks a bit dry! Plants can wilt from under and overwatering but since the rest looks perky it could just be the end of this shoot!

Ok thanks! I watered it shortly after I posted this.
