It never had bottom leaves, is it supposed to?

But you're right. Just because they're houseplants to us, doesn't mean they don't have seasonal behaviors. It makes sense to me now!

Yes, those are new leaves.

Also, want to say for the record, I know "it's" is wrong. I meant "its"

Here's my rock fig, not that it will shed light on ITS being wet, but just because I took its picture and may as well add it to this post while I'm posting. It's spindly, but a trooper. Kind of like Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree.
