Sounds like it needs repotting the roots may not be getting enough water or fertilizer,the soil is depleted.Either way I would repot with new soil.Hope you save it.
Reply:trans plant when plant is root bound.move up to the next size 6"- 8" or 8"-10" and so on. if you plant is not root bound. I suggest you use some plant food for nutrition and to encourage new growth. : )
Reply:i would say you would have to re-pot it pretty soon. it sounds like its getting to big for its old pot.
Reply:It doesn't need new soil. It's root bound and needs a bigger pot.
