Not so far. I’ve had him four months. I picked a spot with bright indirect light during the day and left him where he was. I was warned he’d have some initial shock and lose leaves, but not to move him. So, I lost maybe 6 leaves and he’s been fine ever since.

Well… It was one of my first plants… I think if you watch a couple YouTube videos, you’ll be ok. ;)

My bestie thought I needed to make plants a hobby and brought it to me. I can ask her!

Oh wow! Big box store. Home Depot. That surprised me! No pests, great condition. She said they had just wheeled in a few pallets of them while she happened to be shopping with her partner. :o She does tend to be impulsive. Lol!

Dot2462That’s an amazing fiddle leaf fig. Love the name. I can only hope mine will grow that large. Oh wait, I don’t have the space for one that large, lol. But still…

AmberIt looks great, and good luck. I don't think I will buy one ever again. After 4 years, and a new grow light, my died very fast thereafter. I tried to save her and propogate her, but she was a goner.
