# I have this plant and all the leaves have fallen off except 3 small…

_Posted by Aimee on 2026-01-26_

I have this plant and all the leaves have fallen off except 3 small ones. What is she and what does she want from me? I didn’t over water. Someone said water once a week? Please help😫 Thank you

If you are watering once a week, you are overwatering. It’s an aeonium. It has lost its color because of not enough light. Should only be watered when soil is totally dry. Probably about every four weeks.

Thank you, I’ve been doing that. I didn’t listen to the once a week

I had this exact same plant and went through the same struggles. I hope yours recovers. Mine did not.
