help :((  
this is my favorite plant  
she’s been leaning for a while  
I tried moving her around as suggested here but I fear she’s not getting better  
I think it’s a water problem maybe  
does anyone have a suggestion? thanks guys 🌿

It looks very healthy! The leaves just keep reaching for the sun.

It is the way they grow, the one in my picture is Peperomia Obtusifolia ‘Thailand’, I also have the variegated like you. You could prune to see if it thickens up and becomes less one sided.

omg thank you so much :))

Yep it looks healthy! I trim the stems of mine every so often because it gets top-heavy.

thank you :))

Pro tip: If you rotate your plant 45° every so often (say, every week), then you can balance the amount of light your plant gets from all sides. Then it won't stick to growing in one direction! :)

Good for shaping too. I have my tree philodendron right up against a wall, and I've been rotating it 180° instead of 45° so that it can grow out from two sides—like an oval from a bird's eye view instead of an even circle

### Elizabeth reageerde op 2024-06-18

Absolutely with the rotating!!! I have to do that with most all of my plants, yours looks healthy, nothing to worry about. Since this is your favorite plant, if you do trim it try propagating what you trim off to get more!

I agree! My peperomia “pepper” is one of my faves also! I have 2 props personally from her and have gifted 3. She grows like crazy! It does get top heavy so be careful there. I have added support for mine recently to control the growth as she got so heavy, a long stem broke off during watering.
