Clivia is a common ornamental plant, famous for its fresh green leaves and elegant flowers, and is deeply loved by flower lovers. However, in the process of caring for Clivia, many flower lovers often encounter the problem of yellowing leaves. What is the reason? How to treat? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Too much light After being exposed to strong direct sunlight in the summer, yellow spots will appear on the leaves of Clivia, and even the entire leaves may turn yellow. Prevention and control measures: Avoid direct sunlight, especially provide appropriate shade in summer. 2. Improper watering Too much or too little water can cause yellowing leaves. Usually too much water can cause root rot, while lack of water can cause the leaves to lose vitality. Prevention and control measures: Adjust watering frequency to ensure the soil is moist but not waterlogged to avoid root rot. 3. Improper fertilization Over-fertilization or under-fertilization will affect the normal growth of Clivia and cause the leaves to turn yellow. Prevention and control measures: During the growing season, apply a balanced compound fertilizer once a month to avoid overfertilization. Reduce the frequency of fertilization during the dormant period to avoid fertilizer damage. 4. Unsuitable temperature Clivia prefers a warm and humid environment, and the most suitable temperature for growth is 15°C-25°C. If the temperature is too high, the water will evaporate too quickly and the leaves will turn yellow. In addition, the yellowing of Clivia leaves may also be caused by low temperatures and frostbite of the plants. Prevention and control measures: When the temperature is high, it is necessary to cool down the plant. You can sprinkle water evenly around the leaves to cool them down. When the temperature drops in winter, it is best to move it to a warm room for the winter. 5. Impact of pests and diseases If there are yellow spots on the leaves, it is very likely that the Clivia has been infected by diseases or insect pests. The main diseases and pests that affect it are leaf spot and anthracnose, which must be dealt with in a timely manner, otherwise they will harm the entire plant. Prevention and control measures: Check the plants regularly and take timely measures if any signs of disease or pest are found. If necessary, spray carbendazim powder or anthracnose thiram, which have good preventive effects on leaf spot and anthracnose. In general, the yellowing of Clivia leaves is the result of the combined effect of multiple factors, and correct diagnosis and treatment are the key. However, during the maintenance process, if you do a proper job of lighting, temperature, water, fertilization, etc., you can basically avoid the problem of yellow leaves to a large extent.
