Causes and treatments of yellow leaves of desert rose

1. Insufficient light

1. Reason: The growth of desert rose cannot be separated from sufficient light. The more light it gets, the stronger it will grow. If it is not exposed to sunlight for a long time, its leaves will gradually turn yellow.

2. Treatment method: You can place it in a place with moderate light intensity and duration for maintenance. After a while, it will return to normal.

2. Temperature discomfort

1. Reason: Desert rose is not cold-resistant and prefers a warm environment. If it grows in a low temperature place for a long time, its leaves will turn yellow due to the freezing.

2. Treatment method: At this time, you need to put it in a warm environment, clean up the fallen leaves around it, water it less, keep the soil in the pot dry, and after the temperature rises, it will slowly resume normal growth.

3. Insufficient watering

1. Reason: Desert Rose needs a lot of water during the growing season. If it is not watered enough during this stage, the soil in the pot will be dry for a long time, the leaves will lack water and will easily turn yellow.

2. Treatment method: Water it immediately, make sure it is watered thoroughly, but do not allow water to accumulate. In the summer, after the soil is dry, it is necessary to replenish water in time and maintain it for a period of time.

4. Improper fertilization

1. Reason: Desert rose is not tolerant to fertilizer. If too much fertilizer is applied at one time, the plant will not be able to absorb it, which will damage the root system and cause yellow leaves. Applying fertilizers at the lowest or highest temperatures will cause fertilizer damage.

2. Treatment method: If too much fertilizer is applied, you can use water to wash away the excess fertilizer and place it in a well-ventilated place for maintenance for a period of time. Normally, fertilization should be carried out when the temperature is suitable. Fertilization should be applied thinly, starting from around the edge of the pot, not close to the stem.
