Our apartment actually is very sunny. It definitely gets the same amount of sunlight as it did in my old home. It went outside during the move when the air was still very warm outside and our apartment also stays quite warm. We moved in the first week of september, and I repotted it a few days after to the pot it's in now (its fourth one!), but these problems started coming up just a few weeks ago. Particularly when the heater really started kicking it into gear, which is why I figured the heater was the problem, since we have awful ceiling vents and it was blowing down on the poor thing.

I've moved it as far away from the direct airflow as possible (the darn things don't close all the way, only redirect the flow left or right) but I believe it's still getting a good amount of light. I'll try not to disturb it anymore in an attempt to let it settle. Since I moved it away from the vents, I haven't noticed any more leaves browning, but they are still dropping anyway, so maybe it is just a little stressed out. Only time will tell now I suppose. Sad
