I got the croton and she was doing well and then one day I saw her drooping like this, could anyone tell me what’s wrong with her?

The problem is clear, it’s a croton.

I came here for this comment 😂. Had one once, spent so long trying to get it to come back to life before I tossed it in the compost.

I’m just bitter because I’ve tried growing like 10 of them stubbornly, I have over 100 happy and healthy plants but I just can’t keep crotons happy 😆

Plants can get dramatic when they need watered. Have you thought about watering it?

#### Destiny antwoordde op 2024-03-08

I’m bottom watering her right now! She’s perking back up slowly!

### Hba reageerde op 2024-03-08

Probably needs water but definitely check for pests. Spider mites loved mine.

#### Destiny antwoordde op 2024-03-08

I have checked and I didn’t see any

#### Sarah antwoordde op 2024-03-12

I had a gorgeous one and spider mites had gotten to it

### Saarah Aamilah reageerde op 2024-03-08

It’s a cry for water! Mine does the same thing! So dramatic🙄

### joï reageerde op 2024-03-08

### Destiny reageerde op 2024-03-08

Thank you everyone! She needed water definitely !

### Dondoo52 reageerde op 2024-03-09

Oh yes, They are drama queens but such a joy to have around! I keep mine in a window and she does well.
