This is my white Anne fittonia and I have to water her every 2-3 days and if I’m a few hours late watering her she wilts over til I water her.. is this normal? Do I need a watering system for her?

    They are fleshy and look limp when they get too dry. Note that clay pots absorbs water from the soil. Try bottom watering until the top soil is moist and the clay pot is soaked. This will allow you to water less often since the clay pot is already wet.

    Good on you 😅 I would have given up and thrown it in a self watering pot already lol not that those are always the best. You could also add a water bulb

      I’ve thought about that! But I’m so scared of o over watering. Idk how it works.😭 I usually go for low maintenance plants that don’t need watering for a couple weeks 😭😭😭

    They have a rope that goes from the water into the soil allowing the plant to absorb water as needed

    It is normal for these to be very dramatic about wilting when they're thirsty

    I have two and I mist them. I also have them sitting on top of a pebble tray (re-purposed flat food container in my case). I have had them for over a year so it seems to work. I do not have mine in bright light. I have killed them before so pebble tray really is working🪴
