My friend has a prayer plant and she is having problems with it. The leaves are turning up and it is becoming very leggy. Can anyone help me so I can help her with this? Thanks.

Tammy,

No it never did, matter of fact i just took it to the kitchen and watered it...i think i may replant it with some new soil and see if that help. This was a nice looking and healthy prayer plant..loved it...Will have to take a pic of her and see if anyone knows anything about why it is doing this.

Have a Great Sunday,

Char

I think I saw on a thread a while back that prayer plants like warm feet (sitting on TV or whatever). You might also make sure there are no drafts.

Thanks Sharon. She tried repotting it yesterday, so maybe that will help.
