What would cause my plant’s leaves to curl like this?


I believe this plant is a Mexican Petunia (though I’m not 100% sure) – it has been doing so well and growing rapidly in the window, drinking a lot of water. All of the sudden, the leaves started to curl at the tips of its stalks. Thank you in advance for any help!

    I’d recommend cutting it back by a few inches and checking to see if it needs a repot. It sounds like it was growing rapidly and its root ball expanded to the size of the pot. Pruning and repotting helps the plant direct energy back to where it’s needed. I’d also check for pests since they can also cause mutation like this.
