What to Do When Orange Jessamine Leaves Turn Yellow? Causes and Solutions

1. Causes

① Lack of light: it may have been placed in a spot without sunlight for a long time, or the light duration is too short;

② Insufficient water: water was not replenished in time, or each watering did not soak through, only wetting the surface of the soil.

These two causes are the biggest reasons for its leaves turning yellow.

2. Solutions

This kind of green plant needs plenty of sunlight during cultivation, especially when placed indoors, where a spot with abundant sunlight should be chosen. If you cannot guarantee it stays in sunlight all day, then it must be in sunlight for at least 5 hours to 6 hours every day. However, in summer the sunlight should be properly shaded, otherwise it will get sunburned. In the other three seasons it can grow fully exposed to sunlight.

This plant has a relatively high demand for water, and it is mostly grown in the south, where the weather and temperatures are higher, so its demand for water is relatively high. In spring and autumn you can water once a day, or once every other day; in summer you need to add water twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening; while in winter you can do it according to the condition of the soil, adding water once every several days. Each time you water, you must soak it through; never water only half and leave half, because over time this will make the potting soil clump, which is very unfavorable for its growth.
