Money Tree Help!!! My money tree keeps dropping leaves on the lower part of the plant, but continues to have growth up top. I am on a consistent watering schedule and it is close to a window getting bright light for at least 10 hours. I don’t know if it’s normal for them to drop leaves? She’s been causing me some stress haha. Any help in the comments would be appreciated!!
It looks like it still needs more light, since it is leaning and the petioles are long and internodal space is pretty wide. They need to be getting direct light for several hours a day to thrive indoors. That would probably solve your issues, also it is better to water it whenever it needs to be watered, not on a set schedule.
