Causes of yellow leaves in Sedum 'Aizoon'

1. Insufficient light

As far as the habits of Sedum 'Aizoon' are concerned, Sedum 'Aizoon' likes sunny and relatively warm places. Therefore, yellowing leaves of Sedum 'Aizoon' are very likely caused by a lack of light and too low a temperature. In this case, avoid placing the plant in a shady or semi-shady place for a long time, and move it to a place with sufficient light. But be careful not to keep it under strong light all the time, especially in the hot summer, be sure to provide ventilation and shade.

2. Too much or too little watering

If the leaves of Sedum 'Aizoon' turn yellow, you can use a bamboo stick to test whether the potting soil is dry or wet, to check whether the plant is short of water. If the potting soil is dry, it is because the plant is short of water. At this time, you need to appropriately increase the amount of watering and spray more water to meet the plant's water needs. If the potting soil is too moist, it is because of too much watering. At this time, you need to appropriately reduce the amount of watering and loosen the soil to avoid waterlogging causing root rot and damaging the vitality of the whole plant. In addition, be sure to pay attention to ventilation, and water only after the soil has dried completely, especially in summer, be sure to avoid rain and avoid water accumulation.

3. Iron deficiency in the potting soil

This reason is not common, but if light and water are suitable, it can be considered. In this case, you can bury some scrap iron in the flower pot, or appropriately apply some fertilizer with a high iron content, to increase the iron content of the potting soil and thereby supplement the nutrients the plant needs, and prevent and treat the symptoms of yellowing leaves.

You must clearly understand the causes of yellowing leaves in Sedum 'Aizoon', and be sure to treat the root cause, otherwise the situation may get even worse.
