| Hello I hope you can help. I have this Fiddle Leaf Fig and have had for 18 months. It's progressively getting sicker. I've read extensively on watering and I do let it dry out between waters. However there seem to be 2 main issues: You can see it's leaning too, and this is the door uses most often in and out of the house which I don't think it likes. However the room which is lightest in the house is also didnt seem to like before. I am in the Highlands of Scotland and wonder if this is a problem and it's just not getting enough light ever. Is he beyond hope? I would like to post 2 pics and dont know how so sorry if i mess it up on here. |

| You will probably get better advice in the houseplant forum. We talk about the edible fig here. Do you have any of those in your area? The black tips are a sign of too much salt in the potting mix, I am not sure about the top leaves though. My guess is spider mites. |
