I agree with Tara. The droopy one looks to me like the "root-ball" has been allowed to dry out, and when this happens, it soaks up moisture very slowly. I don't think that it's a sun issue though. I would soak this plant in a sink or a bucket of water for an hr. to get that root-ball re-hydrated. It's practically impossible to tell when these plants have dried, at least visually. Get used to picking up the plant when it is dry and then again when it is well-watered. You can tell by the weight when it needs water.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
