Why doesn't Aspidistra grow new leaves?

1. Unsuitable temperature

(1) Specific reason: There is an optimal temperature for the growth of Aspidistra. If it is not within this range, it will grow slowly and will not produce new leaves.

(2) Solution: Ensure the temperature is appropriate, preferably between 10 and 25 degrees. The temperature should not exceed 30 degrees in summer and should not be lower than 3 degrees in winter.

2. Lack of light

(1) Specific reason: The growth of new leaves requires appropriate light exposure. If it is placed in a too dark location and does not see light for a long time, its new leaves will not grow.

(2) Solution: Strong light is not needed; diffuse light is enough. You can usually put it indoors in a slightly brighter place.

3. Unsuitable soil

(1) Specific reason: If the soil has not been changed for a long time, it will become clumping, making it difficult for the plant to breathe, affecting the growth of new leaves. Similarly, too little nutrition can also have an impact.

(2) Solution: The soil needs to be loosened and replaced regularly.

4. The flower pot is too small

(1) Specific reasons: If the pot you choose at the beginning is too small, or if the pot has not been changed for a long time, the plant has too little space to grow, which may also result in the plant not growing new leaves.

(2) Solution: Choose a suitable flower pot at the beginning and change the pot regularly.

5. No pruning

(1) Specific reason: If not pruned, nutrients will be consumed too quickly and cannot be supplied to new leaves.

(2) Solution: Prune regularly and remove dead branches and yellow leaves.
