What to do if the leaves of Clerodendrum thomsoniae wilt

1. Proper watering

1. Reason: When raising the Clerodendrum thomsoniae, if the soil in the pot is kept too wet for a long time, the roots will easily rot, and the leaves will wilt due to the accumulation of water; or if it has not been watered for a long time, or the soil in the pot becomes compacted, its roots will not be able to absorb water and transfer it to the leaves, causing the leaves to lose water and droop.

2. Solution: If it is caused by too much watering, you should reduce watering and do not water unless the soil is dry; if it is caused by lack of water, you should loosen the soil in the pot appropriately and pour enough water. After a period of time, the leaves will regain their luster.

2. Proper shade

1. Reason: If the Clerodendrum thomsoniae is exposed to too much sunlight, the rate of water evaporation from the leaves will increase, consuming a large amount of water. At this time, the leaves will become wilted due to lack of water.

2. Solution: When the sunlight is too strong, give it appropriate shade and reduce the sun exposure time. 1 to 2 hours every morning and evening is best, so that its leaves will quickly return to their original state.

3. Increase the temperature

1. Reason: When the temperature is too low, especially in winter, it will be frozen and the leaves will begin to wilt.

2. Solution: Place it in the sun indoors and keep the temperature above 12 degrees to prevent it from frostbite.

4. Increase the amount of fertilizer

1. Reason: The growth of all plants depends on nutrition, and the same is true for Clerodendrum thomsoniae. If it is not supplemented with fertilizer for a long time, it will lack nutrients and the leaves will begin to wilt.

2. Solution: Fertilize it in time. If it is in the flowering season, apply thin cake fertilizer water once a week or so, 3 to 4 times. This will ensure sufficient nutrition and the leaves will become energetic.
