Just got this money tree about 2-3 weeks ago and I’m noticing these spots on the leaves. This is the first money tree I’ve owned so I’m unsure what these are

Is this plant getting direct sunlight? It looks like some burn marks.

#### KP replied on 2024-09-30

It is sitting about 2-3 feet away from a window, off to the side of the window, not directly infront of it

### Vera commented on 2024-09-30

Yeah, it looks like it might be getting toasted. I wonder if it’s getting rays of direct sunlight at some point in the day?

#### KP replied on 2024-09-30

It definitely could be. I have all south facing windows in my home

#### Vera replied on 2024-09-30

That’s a blessing! South facing windows rock.

Should I move it further away from the window?
