Blozem Hints🍀
🍀Feeling leafless! Rapid leaf loss can be a sign of over or underwatering.
🍀Insufficient light can trigger leaf drop too! Find a more suitable location and your plant should quickly recover. Once you find the right place, keep it there as they do not like being moved too often.
🍀A little off the top! Trim to maintain your Ficus’ desired shape
