The money tree is popular for its elegant posture and auspicious name, and many people like to place one in their home in the hope of bringing good luck and wealth. However, in order to make the money tree grow healthily and avoid problems such as yellowing leaves, some maintenance skills are indeed needed. Let’s learn how to deal with the yellowing leaves of the money tree. 1. Light adjustment The yellowing leaf problem of the money tree is often related to light intensity. When there is insufficient light, the leaves will droop to increase the area receiving light; when the light is too strong, the leaves may curl and turn yellow. Adjust the light according to the condition of the leaves to find a suitable growth environment for the money tree. 2. Watering time The money tree is drought-resistant but not water-resistant. Incorrect watering frequency and amount may cause root rot and yellow leaves. Determine the right time to water by observing the changes in the hardness of the money tree's trunk. When the trunk becomes slightly soft, it is a signal to water. 3. Air humidity Although the money tree does not like the soil to be too wet, it prefers a humid air environment. In a dry or well-ventilated environment, regularly spray water mist around the plant and on the leaves, and occasionally add beer water to increase the thickness and gloss of the leaves. 4. Fertilization management The money tree grows slowly and does not require frequent fertilization. Excessive fertilization may cause root burn and lead to yellow leaves. Adjust the frequency of fertilization according to the growth of leaves and choose compound fertilizers mainly composed of nitrogen. 5. Supplement iron Iron is an essential element for the synthesis of chlorophyll. Iron deficiency can cause leaves to become lighter and yellower. Water with a small amount of ferrous sulfate solution every month to replenish iron and keep the leaves green. In general, when caring for money trees at home, the yellow leaf problem is usually related to light, watering, air humidity, fertilization and iron supplementation. In addition, be aware that frost damage in winter may also cause yellow leaves.
