    Hihi. Long time lurker, first time poster. My Macleania Insignis is experiencing some leaf drop, which hasn’t been an issue in previous seasons wherein the plant occupied the same space at the same temperature. Really don’t want this one to kick the bucket, so any tips are very appreciated. Cheers all.

    Welcome to the UBC Forums. I hope you continue to lurk for a while.

    I see that Macleania insignis was featured in the UBC Botany Photo of the Day in November 2007. Very exotic looking.

    It's always useful to provide a photo of the problem plant - sometimes the experts on this site notice obscure details many of us would miss.

    You can tell he's lurking because he's wearing a hood.

    Same space, same temp...same light? Last time repotted? Fertilizer regime?
