This is Elephant's [Food] Bush, Portulacaria afra.

Couple things happening. Change in environment - temp, light, moisture. Give this plant as much light as possible. Even mine drops leaves when it comes indoors for the Winter.

This is not a Jade, though, so don't let it go as dry as one would a Jade. It took me a couple Winters to learn that these plants will drop leaves if not consistently watered.

Okay, I did some looking around about the elephant food bush. So, you can see from my last picture where I have the plant sitting. The plant is getting light through 2 windows. My house stays between 75° to 78° F. The plant came from a nursery in Mississippi to me here in Arkansas. I don't plan to have it outside anytime soon. Since, I over watered it should I replant it? Also, there is drainage water in the humidity tray. should I pour that off? I don't think it's visible from the pictures. There is a screw in the dirt. It seems to be attached to the plant or at least the roots. Any clue why they would add this? Thanks for the advice!

Based on your description of lighting where the portulacaria afra sits, I would supplement with a grow light most of the day. I would say don't repot, as it would be additional stress on top of the shipping stress. Water in the humidity tray is ok. What is your assessment of the soil? Is it soft, fine potting soil or is there a significant gritty component?

The elephant tree recovered no longer dropping leaves, yay. Now, I have a new tree and walmart didn't have a name on it. I'll take a few pics, hopefully some one can name it. Creating a new post for it.
