Causes and treatments of yellow leaves of round-leaved arrowroot

1. Temperature is too low

Reason: It likes warm environment. It is not heat-resistant, afraid of high temperatures, and has poor cold resistance. The suitable temperature for its growth is between 18℃-30℃. If the temperature is too low, the plants may be easily frozen, resulting in yellow leaves.

Solution: Just raise the room temperature and let it recover. When caring for the plants in winter, the indoor temperature should not be lower than 10 degrees, otherwise the plants will be frozen and their growth will be affected. In spring and summer, if the ambient temperature exceeds 25℃, shade should be provided and water should be sprayed to create a cool, ventilated, humid and dark environment.

2. Too much light

Reason: Round-leaf arrowroot prefers partial shade and avoids strong light. If the leaves are exposed to strong light, they may be severely burned, causing them to become dull and yellow, losing their original beauty.

Treatment: Put it in a cool place and spray some water on the leaves to allow it to recover. Try to place it in a place with sufficient diffuse light or in front of a window. It needs shade in spring and summer.

3. Too little watering

Reason: It likes moisture and avoids drought. Dry air can easily cause the edges of the leaves to become scorched and yellow, and cause poor growth.

Solution: It is necessary to replenish water in time and increase the amount of watering. During the growing season, in addition to watering once a day, you should also spray the leaves and the environment to maintain air humidity. When the cold winter comes, in addition to paying attention to keeping warm, you should also strictly control watering. At this time, if the potting soil is too wet, it will easily cause root rot, so keep the potting soil slightly dry. When the temperature warms up in spring, the plant will sprout new leaves again. Do not water too much when new leaves begin to sprout. As the number of new leaves increases, the amount of water should be gradually increased to facilitate the healthy growth of the plant.
