Common Symptoms
Leaning or tilted plant
The main stem or the whole plant leans noticeably in one direction instead of growing upright.
Signs to check
- The lean is consistent and starts at the base or a point along the stem.
- The stem remains firm and rigid to the touch, rather than soft or limp.
- No break, crack, or damaged area is visible at the bend.
- Foliage may look normal or show signs of weak, stretched growth.
Common causes
- Low light · The plant stretches, turns pale, and leans toward the window.
- Underwatering · Soil is dry and leaves are soft and drooping.
