I have an umbrella tree, very small, that has been extremely difficult to take care of. I moved it to my kitchen window and it suddently began to sprotut new growth and look much greener. Now, some of the leaves are beginning to turn yellow and a few have dropped off. Anyone have advice for me? Thank You!
