Underwatering / drought stress
mediumThe leaves are curling and crisping at the edges, a classic sign the plant isn't getting enough water between waterings.
Favorable conditions
- •Watering too lightly or too infrequently
- •Fast-draining soil combined with a hot or dry room
- •Root ball has become pot-bound and can't hold moisture
Management
- 1Water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom of the pot.
- 2Check soil moisture with a finger 2 inches deep every few days.
- 3Consider moving the plant away from direct heat or drafts.
- 4If the roots are pot-bound, repot into a slightly larger container.
