Hi,

This is our first post here so we'd like to say hello to everyone:)

We have no experience at taking care about plants - our apartment seemed to be a bit "empty" place so we decided to change it.
I realize that probably we made and will do many mistakes, but maybe you can help us to prevent further damage by sharing some thoughts with us.

I admit that when placing plant we mostly considered how it will look than how plant will feel Smiling

First, our Money Tree.
The windows are facing South-East.
Unfortunately recently some leaves turned yellow, some have partially dried and some have light discolored (dried?) spots.
Now in Poland sun is not very strong so we keep windows shutters open.

Second, Fiddle-leaf Fig.
It is located next to North-West window.
Aas you can see, without direct sunlight. Probably this is bad decision. Problem we have you can see on photos: brown spots on leaves, especially visible on the youngest leaf. Also we worry about this deformation of leaf presented on photo (second and third) is natural or also sign of some problem. This is visible mainly on leaves closer to the ground.

Third, we have Ficus Ginseng, also located on North-West side. It lost a lot of leaves on the beginning, but now there is many new ones so we hope it will survive. We would like to place some other big plant in the left corner of this room (marked ? on photo) but, considering that it will be really shady corder , we don't know what to choose
