# Hey guys, could someone tell me if my vft looks like it has leggy…

_Posted by Jess on 2024-07-18_

Hey guys, could someone tell me if my vft looks like it has leggy growth?  
The stems are really long, some sag and some go straight upright.  
It’s in the window frame in the room which gets the most sunlight in my house.  
Is this normal growth? If not any suggestions?  
Thanks in advance!

Ps I’ve checked the roots and it doesn’t need repotting yet, still loads of room

Oh great thank you!

That’s normal for it to have longer stems in summer

They are bog plants, so keep them in a shallow tray of distilled water at all times
