What should I do if the leaves of the lucky tree wither and fall off?

The lucky tree has become a common large indoor plant in homes due to its rich green leaves and evergreen nature. Its name symbolizes happiness and is deeply loved by people. So what should we do if the leaves of the lucky tree wither and fall off?

1. Lighting and ventilation

The lucky tree should not be exposed to direct sunlight or kept in a dark environment for a long time, as this may cause the leaves to wither and fall off. At the same time, a poorly ventilated environment will also aggravate the problem of leaf drop.

Solution: The lucky tree likes light but is also shade-tolerant and should be placed in a well-lit and ventilated place. In seasons with strong sunlight, timely shade is needed.

2. Water properly

Too much or too little watering can cause the lucky tree to dry out and drop leaves. Overwatering can cause root rot, while underwatering can leave the soil chronically dry, both of which can cause leaf drop.

Solution: The lucky tree likes a humid environment and needs to be watered in time to keep the soil moist. Each time you water, loosen the soil appropriately to help water penetrate. When the soil is completely dry, add water in time to avoid long-term drought.

3. Soil quality

If the soil of the lucky tree is compacted, the roots will find it difficult to absorb enough water and nutrients, which will also cause leaves to fall off.

Solution: It is recommended to replace the potting soil every 1-2 years in spring, and choose loose, breathable and well-drained soil. You can use leaf mold, garden soil, river sand and decomposed organic fertilizer mixed in a certain proportion.

4. Prevent and control pests and diseases

When the lucky tree is attacked by diseases and pests, it may dry up and lose leaves.

Solution

Spray pesticides in time to prevent and control pests and diseases, and dispose of diseased branches and leaves. Keep the room well ventilated to reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests.

In short, through the above methods, you can effectively save the dry and fallen leaves of the lucky tree, help it recover its health, and maintain its greenness and vitality in all seasons.
