Finally figured out why my fiddle leaf fig kept dropping leaves—I was rotating it too much. Sounds backwards, but it hates being moved around. Now I keep it in one bright spot and only water when the top inch of soil is actually dry. Been stable for three months now, which is a record for me. If you've got one struggling, try leaving it alone for a bit instead of fussing with it.
