Houseplant experts reveal the one reason your fittonia is drooping – plus tips on how to revive it

Fittonia drooping.

I've worked hard to build my houseplant collection and the truth is it will never stop growing. When indulging in this hobby, I've come to learn the importance of smaller plants for filling gaps on your windowsill and presenting a more luscious indoor garden. However, the impact of this dense indoor foliage is only effective when all plants are in best health, and something like a fittonia drooping can throw off the whole display.

Even though they aren't the most difficult plants, you do need to know a few tricks for successful fittonia care. They react quickly to an improper growing environment with foliage that looks worse for wear. From drooping, to discoloring, and even leaf drop, your fittonia will quickly let you know it isn't happy.
