What is the reason why the leaves of longevity bamboo are dry?

Longevity bamboo was formerly known as bamboo and cypress, its plant type is tall and straight, evergreen all the year round, not only the ornamental value is extremely high, but also because the name implies good, so many like to raise several pots at home. But some friends found that the leaves were dry in the process of culture. what is the reason for this? How to solve it? Come and have a look with the editor.

1. the light is too strong

Although longevity bamboo likes to grow in the sun, it does not like strong light, so it is appropriate to keep it in the shade without excessive light. If it is exposed to the sun in summer, its leaves are easily dehydrated and withered, which seriously affects the ornamental quality of longevity bamboo. At this time, it needs to be moved to a cool environment for maintenance, and if the temperature is too high, it is also necessary to spray water around the plant to reduce the ambient temperature and increase air humidity, which can be restored soon.

2. Improper fertilizer and water

Longevity bamboo likes a humid environment, but it is not resistant to water and wet. once it is watered too much, it will cause serious stagnant water in the basin and cause rotting roots in the plant. In this way, the plant can not absorb nutrients normally, and over time, the leaves will dry up and turn yellow, and if not controlled in time, the plant will die. The use of heavy fertilizer causes root burns and rotting roots. Therefore, attention should be paid to fertilizer and water management in aquaculture, and the rotten roots should be cut off in time and then replanted in pots.

3. Hypothermic frostbite

Longevity bamboo is not cold-resistant and will be frostbitten at low temperatures in winter. Its leaves will dry after being frozen. If it is not treated, the plant may freeze to death directly. At this time, we need to cut off the frostbitten branches and leaves, and we also need to move it to a temperature of about 10 degrees to promote its germination of new leaves.

4. Diseases and insect pests

When the plant suffers from diseases and insect pests, it will make the plant grow badly gradually, lose its vitality and finally wither and die. It is necessary to cut off the diseased branches and leaves in time, improve the ventilation environment of the growing environment, and apply fertilizer to maintain it. In addition, it is necessary to prescribe the right medicine to the case and spray corresponding pest control agents.
