Notes on my Fiddle Leaf Fig

I finally figured out why my Ficus lyrata kept dropping leaves—it wasn't underwatering like everyone says, but rather the temperature swings between my heated living room and the cool hallway. Since I moved it to a stable spot, new growth has been steady for three months. The new leaves are absolutely gorgeous and firm, not the limp ones I was getting before. If yours is struggling, temperature consistency might be worth checking before you adjust watering.
