Recently, temperatures have been rising steadily, and the plants kept at home are all full of life. But some money trees have leaves that have curled, just like hair given a wavy perm, but don't think it's fun and ignore it. This may be a new sign that it is sick, and if it isn't dealt with promptly, it may die outright, so let's analyze below exactly what the causes are and how to deal with them.

Fertilizing

Some flower-loving friends, in order to make their money trees grow better and their leaves more glossy, often fertilize the money tree, and this causes the newly grown leaves to curl. First pour a large amount of water into the potting soil, watering several times, so the fertilizer flows out with the water, then cut off the curled leaves, and finally place it in a well-ventilated spot.

Light

The money tree by nature rather likes light. If one half of the money tree gets no light while the other half does, then the half without light will develop curled leaves. The money tree by nature likes light, but does not like direct strong light, so place it in a spot with diffused light and regularly rotate the pot so the leaves receive even light; only then can it grow better.

Pests and diseases

If the money tree becomes infected with pests or diseases, its leaves will also curl. We can turn the leaves over and carefully check for pests, and if there are any, promptly trim off the curled leaves, then spray insecticide on the leaves; this way all the pests can be killed and it will not spread to the other leaves.
