Wir sind gerade mit einer Terrasse in diese Wohnung gezogen. Wir wissen nicht viel über Gartenarbeit, aber wir wollen lernen/versuchen. Diese Pflanze scheint krank zu sein. Kann es gerettet werden? Weiß jemand, was zu tun ist? Danke!

All I know is it’s a fig tree, A couple leaves on mine look like this but also unsure why. Possibly the hot weather we’ve had?
Hi. Is there also a web-like substance on the affected leaves? I think it’s a fig with spider mite. It’s been really common the last couple of years. Best thing to do is to brush the webs off as you see them, and take off any seriously damaged leaves.
I’d say that fig might benefit from a bit of pruning at some point. You can start by pinching out some of the tiny tips of the branches a bit to encourage it to sprout from further down.
Edit to add: It isn’t sick. And will definitely survive!
This is a fig tree with [fig-tree skeletoniser moth](https://www.rhs.org.uk/biodiversity/fig-leaf-skeletoniser) damage. The tree will cope fine at this number.
