# Feel like I’ve coming in a lot lately…but can somebody helps me with…

_Posted by Liv on 2025-12-29_

Feel like I’ve coming in a lot lately…but can somebody helps me with my Elphaba?? She’s a jade plant and a few weeks ago she lost a couple of her leaves. They fell right off when I was dusting them off, just a routine I do on occasion for all my plants and she’s never lost leaves to me doing that. I’m stumped because the leaves looked perfectly healthy before I touched them and very stable when I picked her up. Is that a normal thing for jade plants or did I maybe bump her a little too hard? She hasn’t lost any other leaves since and I’m careful to check in on her occasionally but I’m more curious if any body has an answer to my question!

this spot looks way too dark for her. succulents like bright, indirect light at the least. put her on a windowsill.

Will do! I’ve already done that and hopefully she’ll improve :)
