Is the pot too big for the roots? Is it getting enough light and water? Are there drainage holes in the pot? There can be a whole bunch of things going wrong. I learned that the hard way. As soon as I thought I had one thing figured out something else was wrong lol

I believe these are also sensitive to draft, is it near vents?

In my experience they don’t like direct light, also I don’t water mine till the leaves tell me to
