Reasons why jasmine leaves fall in winter

The most important reason why jasmine drops its leaves in winter is temperature, but there are also other influences.

In winter, if the temperature is too low, the jasmine will drop its leaves, and in severe cases it may even cause frost damage. In addition, there may be a problem with the placement of the flowers. The jasmine flowers are placed in a place that is easily exposed to cold winds, and will be frozen when blown by the cold wind. It may also be due to too little or too much watering. If you water too much or too little, the soil in the pot will be too dry or too wet, which is not conducive to the growth of jasmine and will cause it to shed its leaves.

Can jasmine survive if it loses all its leaves in winter?

In winter, if the leaves of jasmine have fallen off, then look at its branches first. If the branches are still green, it means that the jasmine can still be saved. First of all, we must change its current situation according to the reason why the jasmine is shedding leaves so that it stops shedding leaves. When the Qingming Festival comes, move the jasmine to a semi-shaded place outdoors, cut off the dead branches, stop fertilizing, and water it after the soil in the pot is completely dry. You can let it soak in the rain on rainy days. After maintaining it in this way for a period of time, as the temperature rises, branches and leaves will grow again at the leaf buds of the jasmine.
