Leaf drop.

Draughts and cold cause the plant to go into a shock. Check for any cold air currents and move the plant out of the way.

Soft, browning and limp leaves.

A sign of over watering. At this stage it is best to check if root rot is present and if it is take as many healthy cuttings as you can find. If however you can still see white roots then place the earth ball on a saucer to allow for good air circulation and a chance for the plant to dry out.

Stems with a few leaves on with big gaps in between.

The plant is not receiving enough light. Move it to a brighter position, but not in direct sun. Aim for morning and/or afternoon light.
