True jasmine is a bit finicky when it comes to soil and air moisture. If the leaves of the jasmine turn yellow in spring and autumn, there are usually mistakes in care. How to prevent yellow leaves.
Why does my jasmine have yellow leaves?
Yellow leaves on jasmine can be caused by too much or little moisture, pest infestation, lack of nutrients or a location that is too shady. To counteract the problem, make sure to water sufficiently without waterlogging, fertilize if necessary and choose a sunny place for the plant.
Yellow leaves due to poor care
There are five main reasons why a jasmine turns yellow leaves:
- too much or little moisture
- Pest Infestation
- Nutrient Deficiency
- too shady location
Ensure that the soil never completely dries out, but that the water does not build up. If it is very hot, you should spray the plant more often. If there is a lack of nutrients, fertilize or plant the jasmine in fresh soil.
Pest infestation is rarely responsible and can be easily recognized on the leaves.
Choose a bright, sunny location
If the jasmine is too dark, the first thing that becomes apparent is the yellowing of the leaves. Find a more suitable location.
Tip
It is normal for jasmine to have yellow leaves in autumn, which then fall off. Jasmine is deciduous and sprouts again in spring.
