I've had the same pothos for three years now and it's finally stopped sulking. Turns out mine hated the spot I gave it—too much direct afternoon sun for a plant that just wants bright, indirect light. Moved it to a shel

I've had my Peace Lily for about eight months now and I'm still figuring out its moods. Mine seemed to droop dramatically whenever I missed a watering, which honestly stressed me out at first—I thought I was killing it.
