I purchased several tiny trees over the winter. I have put them in my window over the last 2 months where they seemed to do quite well. I have watered them lightly about once a week or so.. All of the sudden two of the plants leaves are drooping and the stem is leaning. What am I doing wrong and what must I do to save these little guys? Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like it could be too much water. Are they getting enough light and warmth?

I agree, cut the water and see what happens.

I think it's already too late if you only stop watering. I think that you should check the roots and clear any black tissue. Then repot the plant and leave it there.
