# help! my elephant bush is losing its leaves and i’m not sure why. it…

help! my elephant bush is losing its leaves and i’m not sure why. it started happening after i repotted it. the plant and leaves both look healthy to me but they keep falling off. i’m a beginner plant lover so please any suggestions would be great! i’m moving back to college tomorrow and i’m unsure if i should take it with me or if that would be too traumatic when it’s already doing bad (my mom would take care of it at home). thanks for any advice!!

Try more light possibly, the leaves could have been already in a sense of falling off before the potting but then was more apparent after disturbed. Typically if an plant gets leggy bottom leaves tend to fall off, or over watering will do the same as well.
