Good morning… Please help… This is a birds of paradise… Not sure if this is just because it was dry. I did water it yesterday, but it is still curled up…

Maybe root bound? if its root bound than it may not be able to hold very much water making it curl up like that. Or the soil is hydrophobic so the water runs through the pot without the soil soaking any of it up.

Furling leaves usually indicate overwatering. What yout can do is let the soil dry out further between waterings.

i would change to a well draining soil mix, something chunky and maybe add some fertilizer. Helps with chronic over-watering (i do it too)
