Leaves curling down are a sign of overwatering. The opposite it true for upward curling. I think the leaves here are curling down. This could also be from lack of drainage in the pot.

That’s interesting you say that bc I noticed on my triostar the leaves will start to curl ever so slightly. It’s validating to know I’ve been reading plant cues correctly. They’ll curl upwards and once I give her a drink they unfurl. That’s how I know when to water it.
