What to do if the leaves of Michelia odorifera wither

1. Temperature issues

(1) Specific reason: This plant does not like low temperatures. When the temperature is below five degrees, the absorption capacity of its roots will be seriously affected. Then, some of its newly sprouted branches and some leaves may wither.

(2) Solution: If this is the reason, first cut off the withered leaves. Then adjust the temperature. This plant prefers warm conditions. Therefore, it is best to adjust it to around fifteen degrees, and the lowest should not be lower than five degrees Celsius.

2. Soil permeability problem

(1) Specific reason: If the permeability is too poor and the viscosity is too high, the roots will have difficulty breathing. This will cause the leaves to wither or even fall off.

(2) Solution: You can change the pot and pay attention to the preparation of the soil. Mix peat soil (or leaf mold) with fine sand, and control the ratio to one to two.

3. Moisture problem

(1) Specific reason: This plant has fleshy roots, so too much water will cause root rot. Then, its leaves may take on a wilted smell.

(2) Solution: Observe the condition of the soil. If this is the case, adjust the watering. For this plant, you cannot water it too much. Moreover, it is necessary to "see dry and wet". Also, don't water in the sun.

4. Fertilizer concentration

(1) Specific reason: Like other plants, this plant cannot be fertilized with fertilizers of too high a concentration. If the concentration is too high, it will cause fertilizer damage and may also cause leaves to fall.

(2) Solution: Pay attention to adjusting the concentration and apply fertilizer frequently in small amounts.
