Why does your Chrysanthemum Adriano have yellow leaves? Diagnose the cause and fix it with our step-by-step guide.
Chrysanthemums are sensitive to waterlogged soil, which causes oxygen deprivation in the root zone. This leads to yellowing of lower leaves as the roots begin to decay and lose the ability to transport nutrients.
Chrysanthemums require consistent nitrogen for chlorophyll production. A lack of nitrogen causes older, lower leaves to turn pale yellow first before moving up the stem.
Chrysanthemums are sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations. If temperatures drop too low, the metabolic processes slow down, leading to chlorosis (yellowing) of the foliage.
Tiny spider mites feed on the underside of chrysanthemum leaves, sucking out the sap. This creates a mottled yellow pattern across the foliage often accompanied by fine webbing.
