Why is it leaning and how can I help it??


Hi all,
I’ve had this beauty for about 7 months and last month the largest/tallest column started leaning. I thought it may be because it was the heaviest but then the whole plant started to lean. I’ve seen other plants like this leaning at the plant store that I bought it from. I water once a month and it gets hours of indirect sunlight by a large east facing window. What should I do? I really love her. Thanks for any help 🙏🏻

    Is that where the light source is coming from? Plants tend to lean towards the light.

    I was told that this could be due to:
    1. Overwatering
    2. Lack of sunlight

    And I would say #2 bcuz the ones leaning are the ones that’s mostly in the shade. And you state that u water once a month. When they don’t get their 6+ hours of sunlight, they will lean to follow the source of light. Also to maximize the light they are getting. It seems your plant on the right is also looking for the light.

    (Not a plant expert so apologies if I’m wrong. Just sharing what I was told before.)
