Jasmine Sambac Leaf Drop: Likely a Light Issue, Not Disease

No Signs of Fungus or Pests Described

Leaf loss alone—without spots, webbing, or sticky residue—usually points to environmental stress, not disease. The transition from outdoor summer sun to indoor winter conditions is the prime suspect.

Critical Questions for Diagnosis

• Is the plant still in its 6-inch pot, or was it repotted when brought inside?
• How much direct sun does it get indoors? (Jasmine needs all-day sun in a south window.)
• What are indoor temperature and humidity?
