How to Revive a Fiddleleaf Fig (Part 1)

In this video, we check out a fiddeleaf fig that is doing badly. It has lost leaves and needs to be repotted. After we take it out of the pot, we find that it doesn’t yet have root rot, which is good. However, it needs to be put into a much smaller pot. Garden centers sometimes sell plants that have been put in too big of a pot by the growers. They do this to sell the plants for more money. But what ends up happening is the plant loses leaves and begins to ail. If the plant isn’t repotted into a smaller pot, it will succumb to root rot and eventually die. Fortunately, we seem to have caught this plant in time and have repotted it.
