# Anyone have any idea why my peperomia/baby rubberplant has some of…

_Posted by Crow on 2026-10-16_

Anyone have any idea why my peperomia/baby rubberplant has some of her leaves folded backwards like this? They grew in like this, and the leaves are very firm so I don’t think it’s to do with the water. I’m also not sure how to identify if this counts as curling since it looks less curled and more… folded over.  
I haven’t tried to unfold the leaves because they’re so firm, they came in like this, and they feel like I will break the leaf if I try to unfold it.  
Is she trying to tell me something with this? Please let me know if any other pictures or angles would be needed!

Tried my Picture This app. It’s usually pretty accurate. 🌻😊
