What to do if the leaves of Epiphyllum turn yellow

1. Increase watering

Reason: Epiphyllum is a flower that prefers a humid environment. If you don't water it for a long time or give it too little water, the plant may lack water, causing the leaves to turn yellow.

Solution: Water more frequently. But be careful not to water too much each time, so as to avoid water accumulation in the soil and damage its roots.

2. Increase the temperature

Reason: Epiphyllum is very afraid of frost. Once it is frozen in winter, the whole plant will begin to wilt and become soft, and the leaves will also show signs of yellowing and drying.

Solution: Place the Epiphyllum in a warm environment, then find its frostbitten stems and leaves and cut them off. Don't feel sorry when cutting, because these branches and leaves left on the plant will not only be useless, but will consume a lot of nutrients.

3. Eliminate pests and diseases

Reason: After being infected by some pests and diseases, the leaves of Epiphyllum may also turn yellow.

Solution: After discovering pests and diseases, you must first determine the type of disease, and then take appropriate insecticide spraying measures to treat it.

4. Provide shade at the right time

Reason: When the sunlight is too strong, you cannot expose the Epiphyllum directly to the sun, otherwise its leaves will be sunburned and turn yellow.

Solution: Provide shade when the sunlight is too strong. If the plant has been sunburned, remove the yellow leaves and move it indoors to a place that is not exposed to direct sunlight and slowly maintain it.
