Any Houseplant — Yellow Leaves — common problems
Find the symptom you're seeing for the likely cause and fix.
Yellowing leaves
Likely cause: Too little light, too little fertilizer, insect pests, mites, or overwatering.
Fix: Check light and feeding; inspect for pests; check drainage and roots — discard if roots are dark and soft.
Edema (corky/water-soaked bumps)
Likely cause: Excess soil moisture with poor light and low temperatures.
Fix: Improve lighting; water less often; repot for better drainage; empty saucers.
