Hi Andrew, my first thought is perhaps looking at whether it gets enough light. 8 feet from a window is generally way too far for a “part sun” or “bright indirect light” plant like this one unless of course you are using a grow light. A good rule of thumb for light when you aren’t using a grow light is to place the plant in a spot where it can see the sky from the window (avoiding direct sun, unless it’s maybe an hour or two in the morning only). Plants grown in nurseries rarely have perfect growing conditions when we bring them home so a bit of a decline can be expected but you do want to make sure the plant is getting the light it needs to grow especially if you’re acclimating it to a very different home environment. ☺️
