Pothos and Gardenia Turning Yellow in Hot Weather? One Trick to Bring Them Back to Green in 3 Days

Rose

Main cause: lack of water

Summer temperatures are high, and many flower lovers grow roses in the ground, where water evaporates faster. If watering is not timely, roses easily turn yellow.

Solution:

Ground-planted roses generally need watering once a day, while potted ones are best watered once every 2 days. If you find the soil very hot when watering, do not water yet, otherwise the roots can easily suffocate.

Gardenia

Main cause: soil leaning alkaline

Gardenia yellowing in summer is mostly caused by the soil becoming alkaline, especially in the north where the soil tends to be alkaline, while gardenia prefers acidic soil. With long-term use, yellow leaves naturally appear.

Solution:

After gardenia leaves turn yellow, cut off the yellowed leaves, then water with ferrous sulfate diluted 2000 times with water, once every half month.

Hydrangea

Main cause: improper watering

Hydrangea likes a relatively moist environment. Once water supply cannot keep up, hydrangea leaves easily droop and turn yellow. But there should not be too much water either; hydrangea has fleshy roots, and after root rot from excessive water, the leaves will also turn yellow and dry up.

Solution:

In summer, if you notice hydrangea leaves slightly softening and drooping, water thoroughly immediately. Generally water once a day, and on hot days it needs watering twice a day. Also, after watering, be sure to pay attention to ventilation; poor ventilation still makes leaves prone to wilting and yellowing.

Pothos

Main cause: overwatering

Pothos leaves turning yellow in summer is mainly caused by too much water and poor ventilation. In summer, many friends worry that pothos is short of water and keep watering it, but do not improve ventilation. The pothos is then like taking a sauna, and easily turns yellow.

Solution:

In this case, quickly place the pothos in a well-ventilated spot to speed up water evaporation in the pot. After the water in the pot has mostly evaporated, return to normal care.

Spider Plant

Main cause: dry air

The most common problem for spider plants in summer is drying and yellowing, mainly because the surrounding environment is too dry.

Solution:

Usually spray water on the spider plant leaves and around the flowerpot more often. Friends who find this troublesome can simply place a basin of clean water next to the flowerpot; the evaporation of water from the basin can raise the humidity around the spider plant.

Asparagus Fern

Main cause: dry air

In summer, air conditioning or fans are generally used at home, and in such conditions the indoor air easily becomes dry. If you also fail to water the asparagus fern in time, it easily turns yellow, dries up and dies.

Solution:

Cut off the yellowed leaves and withered branches of the asparagus fern, water once every 3-5 days, and spray water around the asparagus fern every day.

Now you know the reasons these flowers turn yellow, right?
