What to do if the leaves of Phoenix Bamboo wither

The soil is too wet

Excessive watering will cause the soil in the bamboo pot to be too moist, causing the leaves to absorb a large amount of water. The roots will rot due to being soaked in water, and the lack of oxygen in the roots will affect the absorption of nutrients, so the leaves will wither and fall off.

Improper fertilization

If the bamboo is not fertilized properly, it will also cause it to wilt. Fertilizer should be applied thinly and frequently, but it should be prevented from being too concentrated. Too concentrated fertilizer will cause root burns, resulting in serious scorching of the leaves.

The soil is too dry

The high temperature in summer and the scorching sun can also cause the leaves to wither. If the soil in the pot is too dry for a long time and lacks moisture, the leaves will burn. Therefore, in the normal maintenance process, you need to pay attention to applying thin fertilizers frequently, watering appropriately, and keeping the potting soil moist.

Too little water

Too little watering for a long time will lead to lack of water in the spray, causing the growth of Phoenix Bamboo to be weak and causing serious leaf withering. At this time, you should pay more attention to watering, and water thoroughly.

Exposure to the sun

When the light is too strong, the sunlight will penetrate the body of the plant and cause burns and withering. At this time, it should be shaded frequently. The potted plant can be placed in a place in the living room without strong light.

Disease caused

When leaf blight and rust occur in Phoenix bamboo, the leaves will wither and gradually fall off. In this case, 2000 times of 65% mancozeb solution should be used for prevention and control.
