Can anyone help me with my fiddle leaf fig tree, Betsy. I’ve had my baby for a little over two years - a gift from my son-in-law. I went on vacation for a month exactly a year ago. During that time I had my daughter come in and water all my plants. She grabbed a jug that had neem oil to spray the ones that would get these lil bugs. She thought it was just water and poured it on ALL of my plants. I came home to brown spots and burned edges on my fiddle leaves. I cut the leaves where the edges were brown around six months after it happened. I don’t think she got too much into this particular plant as opposed to the other ones she LITERALLY killed. Or maybe my beautiful Betsy is just resilient and she survived it. I’ve never had a tree like her before, so I simply maintained it with water and every month a hearty drink of miracle grow. She was stretching and even after the trauma, she was sprouting new growth. Up until recently I started to notice her leaves were turning brown then yellow and quickly falling off. There are now two branches completely bald and the leaves look like they’re drooping. I’ve even fed her banana water. Maybe it’s root bound. Nothing has really changed other than not watering it on schedule like normal. I’m thinking I should change the dirt. Any suggestions would be a great help. Also what kind of dirt should I use when I change it out? I’ll post pics of the bald branches and the leaves that have fallen. Thanks in advance.
