I'll tell you everything you may possibly want to know:
I bought the plant in may and it was thick and green and very nice.
Now it is losing leaves every day and the inside leaves are not as green, outer leaves and upper leaves are green but there are not as many leaves as before.
I water it once a week, and it is gets indirect sun (it is constantly under a window with shades so it gets sun).
It stays room temperature, and the room its in is always warm.

Can you please help me?

I have 2 China Doll plants. They are very temperamental!! I find they lose leaves like that when they aren't getting enough water. They like bright indirect light and moist soil. Dark tips on the leaves indicate over watering.
Sharon-China Doll is Radermachera Sinica.
