Finding light for Autograph Tree in your home
a window
Autograph Tree may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.

How to fertilize Autograph Tree
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Autograph Tree after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Does anyone know what’s wrong with my Clusia and why she’s turning yellow and dropping leaves? Also what is this casing around the base? #Clusia

Droopy Autograph Tree Hello, Beginner here! 👋🏽🙋🏻♀️ I got my Clusia one month ago and now it’s starting to get droopy, it is still developing new leaves, however it looks very sad, I looked at its roots and some were light and others were browner, however it did not smell bad. When I put it back together, it dropped a leaf 🥺 I live in Northern Europe and this season is very dark, therefore it could be the light. I have also had to move it from room to room in order to give it enough light, is that bad? Thank you so much for your help!❤️ #beginnerplantparent #HappyPlants #droopyleaf #AutographTree #clusiarosea

Can anyone identify this plant. Greg's labeled it an autograph tree but the leaves appear chunkier.
-
I believe my plant was misidentified on Greg. The leaves seem too thick for an autograph tree. Could someone help identify this plant? I'm preparing to repot. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddic #clusia #Ccl7sialusia

Is this a pest? I've been distracted by my outdoor garden and my indoor plants have been suffering. Whoops What is this? #Clusia #help #pestcontrol
