Sometimes the shock of a new environment makes plants unhappy, but they usually bounce back. I'm not an expert in your plant, but it could be that it gets too much sun where it currently is, or it's just real thirsty! Both of those can make leaves droopy. If they're yellowing, are they mushy? That could be a sign of overwatering, or if they're not mushy then it could just be this plant's way of storing surplus nutrients, in which case it's natural and you can just remove the leaf when it turn completely yellow. Your plant still looks very healthy to me! Also completely unrelated, but where on Earth did you get your egg cup air plant holder?? It is so adorable, I must have it 😍
@magicthyme87 I’ll show you my white butterfly Syngonium!
This is her when she gets thirsty and then a couple hours after I water her! Syngoniums are great because their leaves will tell you if they’re thirsty or not 😁
I also have mine in my East facing windowsill and it is THRIVING, so the light isn’t an issue. It’s probably just thirsty :)
Also, they grow very fast so if you have leaves that are yellowing at the bottom, they’re most likely older leaves and using them to push out new growth 🌿✨

@UnbiasedTree the yellowing leaves feel the same as the healthy ones… not sure what to make of that. i got my egg air plant from a small tourist shop on vancouver island, but i’ve seen similar things at local pop up markets!
@magicthyme87 Of course! Don’t worry too much about the yellowing of leaves! If you want to expand and make your plant bushier, you can prune the leaves and your plant will push out new growth from those areas! That’s how I’m making mine a little bigger 😁
The leaves are probably older and at the end of their life span 🫶🏽🪴✨

@magicthyme87 Syngoniums are very easy and one of my favorites! If you ever have ANY questions regarding them, tag me! I’ve dealt with pests, watering issues, lighting issues, etc with Syngoniums 🤣
Here are my two babies 🫶🏽 Midori & Satori 💖

Also, syngoniums are vining plants...so sometimes vining can look like drooping! In this case it sounds like a water issue, but just something to keep in mind down the road. 😊
