What to do if the leaves of the dragon beard tree turn yellow and dry

1. Reduce watering

Reason: If you do not scientifically regulate watering when growing the dragon beard tree, and water it again before the soil has dried up, water will accumulate in the soil. Then its roots will be waterlogged and rot, which will affect the roots' ability to absorb water and nutrients from the soil. Its leaves will also turn yellow and dry due to lack of necessary water and nutrients.

Treatment method: Loosen the soil first and remove the plant from the pot. Then check its root system and cut off the rotten and blackened parts. Then plant it in new soil and water it less frequently.

2. Avoid strong light

Reason: If it is kept in a place with too strong light, its leaves will be exposed to the strong light for a long time, causing them to lack water, become dry and turn yellow.

Treatment method: First cut off the leaves that are severely sunburned, then place the plant in semi-shade, water it appropriately, and wait for it to slowly recover.

3. Dealing with Pests

Reason: If the leaves of the plant are eaten by certain pests, its normal physiological activities will be hindered, resulting in yellowing and dryness.

Treatment method: Move the plant to a well-ventilated location, then spray some medicine to kill the pests.
