# New to house plants! I’ve noticed my umbrella trees leaves are…

_Posted by LewisL on 2024-05-13_

New to house plants!

I’ve noticed my umbrella trees leaves are starting to curl, I presume this needs water. Am I right? I have given it plenty of water tonight and ensure it’s not drowning.

Any help is much appreciated

It looks really healthy. Though I do know from experience that the heat from a burning candle travels and can cause curling and drying leaves.

She looks good to me! Nature isn’t always perfectly shaped :-)

Mine likes to be misted regularly!
