Reasons for the decreasing size of the leaves of the滴水观音 (D Corymbosa)
A detailed introduction is about the content of the floral clinic concerning滴水观音, the reasons for the decreasing size of the leaves of滴水观音, let's understand it together next.
If we talk about the difficulty of maintenance,滴水观音 is considered a relatively easy-to-care-for type, but some flower friends have found that the leaves of their滴水观音 are getting smaller and smaller, and they don't know where the problem is. The author also has two pots of滴水观音 at home. Because it is quite tough, no serious care was taken, and the result is that it didn't die, but the leaves got smaller and smaller, including the new leaves that didn't grow big.
The reason for the above paragraph is to tell flower friends that when滴水观音 is growth-limited (water, light, fertilizer, etc.), the leaves will become smaller and smaller because the nutrients obtained by滴水观音 cannot meet its growth needs, which is why the leaves become smaller, which can be understood as malnutrition.
If the leaves of your滴水观音 become very small, you might as well try the following methods.
1. If the pot is not large, and the potting soil is scarce or has not been changed for a long time, then flower friends may consider changing the pot and soil. It is simple to repot滴水观音, don't worry, it won't die, just water it well after changing.
2. Check if there are red spiders on the leaves of滴水观音, which is also one of the reasons for the decreasing size of the leaves. You can see if the leaves have a waxy texture and if the back has spider silk. If there are red spiders, wash them with soapy water, once every three days, and wipe them twice consecutively for an effect.
3. If it is kept indoors, then change the location of滴水观音 to a place with ventilation and sunlight.
If the above three points are done well,滴水观音 can definitely grow very robust.
The detailed introduction shared above about the reasons for the decreasing size of the leaves of滴水观音, have you understood it?
