Cast Iron Plant drooping
Quick answer
If your Cast Iron Plant is drooping, the most likely cause is: Drooping leaves on Cast Iron Plant typically result from a chill or sudden temperature drop; the broad leaves lose turgor when the plant is exposed to cold drafts or temperatures below its tolerance, and the leaves may fall without first yellowing.
Start here:
- 1. Water thoroughly until moisture drains from the bottom of the pot to restore leaf turgor if the soil has dried out
- 2. Move the plant to a warmer location away from cold windows, AC vents, and exterior doors during winter so leaves can recover
