# My rubber tree has been a little sad looking since I got it over four…

_Posted by Ray on 2026-01-05_

My rubber tree has been a little sad looking since I got it over four months ago but it’s been looking a little extra worse for wear. My other rubber tree on the same table is fine. I’m hoping someone has an idea of what went wrong.  
Thank you!

It’s more the weird texture/discolouration on some of the leaves that concerns me and it looks a little floppier in real life lol but maybe I’m worrying for nothing!

I see, I just got one for Christmas and I’ve been wondering if mine is healthy as well but I think yours looks just as good if not better than mine. Maybe we both can learn if there’s a way to make them better
