The yellow leaves of the money tree may have been exposed to the sun for a long time. Or excessive application of water causes water accumulation in the basin and root problems. Too dry in the growing air is also one of the reasons. First, observe whether the root rots. If it rots, trim the rotting root, and then replant it. If it doesn't rots, adjust the maintenance factors according to the reasons.

I. The reason for yellowing

1. Direct sunlight: although it likes sunshine, it can't bear long-term exposure to strong sunlight. The leaves will start to turn yellow and fall after exposure to the sun.

2. Over watering: because its leaves are fleshy and can store excess water, once excessive water is applied, there will be water in the basin, the root will be unable to bear it, and then it will start to rot. Then the growth of the plant will also be affected, the upper leaves will turn yellow and start to fall off.

3. Air drying: it likes to grow in a humid environment. About 85% humidity is the best for growth. When it is too dry in the air, the tip of the leaf will turn yellow, and then become burnt yellow.

2. Solutions

First, check whether the root has rotted. If it has rotted, take out the plant, trim the rotten root and remove the yellow leaves on it. Then choose a warm day and replant into the substrate. If it doesn't rot, you need to find out the cause, put it in the shade, control the application of water, and spray water on the leaves when the air is dry.
