# so i recently got this peperomia plant and at first, she was doing…

_Posted by kitkat! on 2024-01-23_

so i recently got this peperomia plant and at first, she was doing great. i repotted her and haven’t overwatered her at all. she’s in front of a window but not getting a huge amount of sun because of the weather and only recently i started to notice that’s she’s wilting. i guess i’m wondering if anyone maybe knew any tips or reasons for the wilting? i could use some advice please and thank you!! 😮‍💨😁

Is it possible that the window has a draft coming through it?

### Trina commented on 2024-01-23

Do the leaves seem dry and almost crispy? If so it could be underwatered or the other comment about a cold draft coming in could be a possibility as well! Hope your plant is able to recover!

The leaves should be plump and waxy looking. I have this plant and even when the soil is completely dry, the leaves don’t droop much so I think the cold draft really did a number on it. I’d suggest moving locations and give it a lot of light. I have mine under a grow light and it’s continued to grow like crazy throughout winter. If moving it doesn’t help, you can always propagate it. Mine got way too tall and started falling so I chopped the top pieces and am currently propagating the tops in perlite (shoutout to plantyann for the suggestion) and they’re starting to push out roots 2-3 weeks later
