Question about brown leaves on Floof (dragon tree … I thi...

Hi friends! My little Floof is slightly worrying me. We brought him home a couple weeks ago, I purchased him from an outdoor market and so I’m not sure if he was kept outdoors always…

But since bringing him home, he’s losing a lot of leaves. I took a photo with the leaves that shed today so you can see.

It’s like one second they’re green, and the next they are brown and have completely shed, almost like how hair sheds from your head naturally each day.

I’m wondering if this is a seasonal thing, I’m located in Costa Rica and it is the start of our rainy season (although yes, he’s completely inside lol) and I wonder if this is just a natural shed or if it’s something to be concerned about.

His soil looks good, any insight would be appreciated. οΏΌοΏΌ

It is normal for these to shed their lower leaves. The rest of the plant looks healthy, so that’s good. 🀞🏻πŸͺ΄
@debbiedo OK awesome! Yes, I’ve noticed that everything has been falling from pretty deep inside the plant/underneath, but I’ll keep an eye out. I appreciate it. πŸ₯°οΏΌοΏΌ
