# Hi! I’ve had this plant for a while and she was really happy, but…

_Posted by nugget on 2025-03-15_

Hi! I’ve had this plant for a while and she was really happy, but since I moved apartments the leaves have started drooping, there’s significantly less growth and large variegated leaves like there used to be, and they’re constantly yellowing and falling off. I’m not sure if I’m watering not enough/too much or if there’s something else that could be going on, if anyone could help. I just pulled off about 20 yellowed leaves and included a picture of what it used to look like also.

I am not a expert but I could be because the lack of sunlight

Some plants (as weird as it seems) have trouble moving.  
I got a cactus from a friend and it wasn’t doing very well for a little while because it was “stressed” and “unfamiliar” because of moving places.
