    Hi,

    We have an autograph tree in a very well lit spot, and it seems to be dropping leaves like crazy - green leaves, yellow leaves and soft brown leaves. The yellow leaves started to appear from the top of the tree and worked it's way down to the bottom. We just got the plant about 3 weeks ago and know it needs to be acclimatized to it's new spot. We only water when the top 2 inches of the soil becomes dry and give it good thorough water.

    I have attached a couple of pictures to show what the leaves are doing. Please let me know if you need any more information.

    Thanks,
    Ann

    According to Clusia Rosea Care - How To Grow An Autograph Tree - Smart Garden Guide:
    In addition, regular potting soil may be too dense for this plant:
    An inspection of the roots may prove useful.
