I’ve got a bucida spinosa that has been suffering from pretty severe leaf drop. I haven’t been able to find a ton on the species, particularly surrounding new growth/old foliage drop

Its currently inside for winter, it has been in an east facing window with some supplemental grow lighting. Since things have warmed up I have been bringing it into our three season porch during the day.

Initially after seeing some webbing I suspected spider mites and treated with insecticidal soap followed by neem oil, to no avail.

I’ve not let the soil dry out between watering sad the literature I’ve seen indicates they like moist soil. That’s said I’m out of ideas and any insight is greatly appreciated
