I finally figured out why my fiddle leaf fig kept dropping leaves—turns out it hated being moved around! I'd been rotating it every few weeks thinking it wanted light from all angles, but once I found a bright spot and left it alone, it's been thriving for months now. Has anyone else had this experience, or do yours actually prefer to be rotated? I'm still learning its moods after three years.
