romalu said: Have they always been in that pot? Is it wider than it is deep? That looks like it might be part of the problem to me, too wide and possibly not deep enough. I'm not sure it would be beneficial to repot them again right now though. For now I'd prop up the drooping one with some pebbles, and water lightly maybe once a week for a few weeks -- enough to moisten the soil, but not soak it. This will encourage root growth and help them get re-established. After that you can consider repotting into a more suitable sized container.



I moved them into this pot about a month ago. It is not very deep, but they do not have much root either.

I watered them very well this last week and will back off on the watering for a week or so. I havent considered propping up the dropping one... how does that benefit the plant?
