Hi All, This plant has grown really nicely over the last 6 months. I’d say it’s probably 50% bigger than it was when We bought him in the Spring. However, I’ve noticed that his leaves are looking a bit droopy lately. Do you think we’ve been over watering him?

Does the compost feel wet? Usually you let the compost dry out a bit before you water again. I don’t know the specific requirements of this plant, have you googled it?

Thanks for the reply. Yes - it’s moist. I think I’ll let it dry out for a week. I think my partner and I have both been watering him so we’ve probably been too kind to him by mistake. Google agrees with you about letting it dry out between waterings!
