droopy looking bloodleaf
 

I have been told a couple times to leave this plant in full sun, which I have been for the most part. I took it into the shade today because it looks like it is dieing.

Most leaves have lost their color all folding in and now drooping down, they are also wavy. I have not been over watering it, and do not think its been under watered. Plant is in about a 5 gallon pot with desert mix potting soil with perlite added. I did not break away the orginal soil that came with it. could this be a problem? I think I am going to move this plant inside.
Any advice would be great!
BTW I have been still been putting out leaves every 4-6ish days. This current leave is looking alot slower tho.

My initial impression is that it looks like it's growing well with the new leaf emerging and a new one every 6-7 day is good for zone 6. Why do you think it's suffering? When did you get it? Was it repotted recently?

My plants routinely fold their leaves during the hot sunny part of the day. Later they spread them again.

I bought the plant maybe a month ago. and was repotted then from a 4 or 6 inch pot to its 5 gallonish home. It has been opening at night but seems to get less and less. It looks ok in those pictures? nothing to worry about?

looks underwatered to me, I bet the soil in the middle of the pot is dry.

Probably getting acclimated to the new pot. If that plant was in a 4-6" pot it probably didn't have enough root development to adequately support the plant. Water thoroughly when you do and let the soil dry to about 2" before watering again. I would guess it recovers quickly. I don't think it needs to go indoors.

Thanks for all the help guys and gals! I think it was under watered, I kept bringing it under a patio whenever it stormed. Well I guess I left it out in 95f weather for a couple days. It has now sprung back up leafs look a little better not reaching for the ground anymore!
