What should I do if the leaves of the swallowtail palm fall off?

1. Excessive watering

1. Reason: If you water your bird's nest with a lot of water, it may cause root rot. After its roots rot, the rate at which it absorbs water and nutrients will slow down. If the leaves receive less water and nutrients, they may turn yellow and fall off.

2. Treatment measures: At this time, take the plant out of the pot and cut off all rotten roots with scissors. Then, plant it in new soil with good drainage and control water appropriately to prevent its roots from rotting again.

2. Temperature discomfort

1. Reason: If it is kept in an environment that is too cold or too hot for a long time, it will grow poorly and have problems with falling leaves.

2. Treatment measures: At this time, change the temperature of the surrounding environment and keep it between 15-32℃. In winter, you should keep warm, and in summer, you should pay attention to shade and cooling.

3. Forgetting to Fertilize

1. Reason: When the bird's nest palm is in its growth period, it is generally necessary to apply fertilizer once every 10 days. If you plant it in poor soil without nutrients and forget to fertilize it, it may also drop its leaves due to lack of nutrients.

2. Treatment measures: At this time, the frequency of fertilization should be appropriately increased to supplement nutrients. When applying fertilizer, it is recommended to apply liquid fertilizer because such fertilizer is easier to be absorbed by the plant.
