# Help! I brought this one in a little over two weeks ago trying out…

_Posted by Vicky on 2023-09-28_

Help! I brought this one in a little over two weeks ago trying out the “I’m going to save my plants over the winter”. She started dropping leaves last weekend. What is happening? Not near AC vent, gets morning sun (south window) and day light all day. Water levels are fine!

Could be humidity? The air might be too dry

It’s a huge transition going from outside to inside or inside to out. They have to acclimate. Might be in shock. I’d say chop and prop. Because I’ve seen these plants do every well indoors. 🤞🏽

What does chop and prop mean, please?

Make cuts of the plant where it’s still healthy (chop) and put them in water, perlite, etc to (prop)agate them -  
It’s a great way to save a plant that’s going quickly downhill! + if the base plant survives, you have a backup
