3 kinds of flowers with yellow, withered leaves - don't throw them away, after cutting them bare new shoots grow like crazy

Huahua wants to tell everyone here that with many flowers, when yellowing and drying up happen, you shouldn't rush to throw them out. We can cut off all the damaged branches and leaves, and that way they can sprout new shoots again, and then you just carry on caring for them as usual. So which plants can be treated this way? Come and take a look with Huahua!

1. Clivia (Clivia miniata)

Everyone knows Clivia has glossy, shiny leaves and is even more stunning when it blooms, but getting a Clivia to flower really takes a lot of effort. Clivia has quite a lot of requirements when it comes to care conditions, and often as you grow it, root rot and yellow leaves appear, yet throwing it away feels like such a waste. Actually, you can rescue it just by pruning off the damaged leaves.

Use scissors to cut off all the yellow parts of the Clivia leaves, and don't be too soft-hearted to cut - even if only a tiny bit of leaf is left, it can still come back to life. With a pruned Clivia we need to watch the usual watering and not water too much, because often it's watering that causes water to pool around the Clivia's roots, and then yellow leaves and similar problems follow.

2. Spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum)

Spider plant is a common household flower, a very easy-to-grow green plant that generally won't develop any "fatal" problems. But yellow leaves on spider plants are also common, and when this happens people usually first treat it with a dipotassium hydrogen phosphate solution to top up the nutrients the spider plant needs. If the yellowing still doesn't ease after doing this, then we can choose to cut off all the yellow parts.

Although a spider plant looks less pretty after the yellow leaves are cut off, the spider plant has very strong vitality and before long it will grow back into its former lush self. Yellow leaves on spider plants aren't only caused by watering; many flower lovers choose to put theirs out in the sun to grow, but this is actually the wrong thing to do, because direct strong sunlight will scorch its leaves - soft, diffused light is the best choice for care.

3. Money tree (Pachira aquatica)

The money tree symbolises "wealth and fortune", so many flower lovers choose to keep one at home. The money tree's branches and leaves are fairly thick and sturdy, but sometimes yellow leaves, root rot and similar problems still appear because of water pooling at the bottom of the pot. At this point we need to toughen up and cut off all the leaves directly, and it's best to repot it too - that way, after a period of time, you'll find new shoots sprouting again.

So in future, whenever you run into these plants drying up and yellowing, don't think they're beyond saving and throw them out. Handle them ruthlessly like this, and you can carry on growing them. If you have flowers with this problem, why not give it a try right away!
