It may just be shocked. I moved mine once and it threw a fit! If the lower leaves are falling off, it may just be dramatics. If the emergent leaves are wonky, there might be bigger issues. These plants propagate well. Worst case, you could chop it and start over.

0 J'aimeThese are also sensitive to chemicals in tap water. If you are using tap water, try distilled water or use a water conditioner to treat the tap water.
0 J'aimeI can’t remember where I heard this but with tap water, apparently you can fill your watering container and leave it in front of a window for at least a day. I don’t understand the logic but I haven’t killed a plant in years since doing it 😁
0 J'aimeCertain chemicals, like chlorine, will evaporate off faster than water. So by leaving it to sit for a day, you’re allowing time for chemical vapors to form and remove themselves from the water.
0 J'aimeI don’t use it
