Smurf;

The scheff really dosn't need sun at all. It will do just fine in indirect light.
You could have a few sun burnt leaves. Allow the soil to dry to about an inch before watering. If you moved the plant, it will drop some leaves while it gets used to a new position. It's a tough little tree, so give it some time..

As long as the temp. dosn't fall below 55 it can stay outside. Scheffs don't like cold.
