Droopy Caladium

Iโ€™m not sure whatโ€™s going on. Bought her may 10 and since she either looks good and standing up but then other times she droops. I brought her in and I thought it may have been too cold with the AC. She was last watered 7 days ago and didnโ€™t know if sheโ€™s been over watered. Due to be watered today but donโ€™t want to over do it. Thereโ€™s also new growth so Iโ€™m just confusedโ€ฆ
8โ€ pot with drainage
Last watered 8 months ago
It seems like youโ€™re doing all of the right things! Sometimes Caladiums droop when they are producing, which is why you are seeing new leaves even though the plant may look more sad than usual! It should be temporary! I would say just to make sure to keep the plant in bright indirect light and avoid sudden temp changes!
@SammiSprout thank you!โ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ
@SammiSprout hey! Do I snip the old leaves? Thanks
@BotanicalWonder Yes! I would recommend snipping old leaves to encourage new growth and more energy provided to new leaves! :)
