Why does your Spathiphyllum Figaro have yellow leaves? Diagnose the cause and fix it with our step-by-step guide.
Spathiphyllum Figaro is highly sensitive to saturated soil; excessive moisture deprives roots of oxygen, leading to fungal decay and yellowing leaves. This is the most common cause of chlorosis in variegated cultivars.
A lack of nitrogen prevents the plant from producing sufficient chlorophyll, causing older leaves to turn uniformly yellow. Variegated varieties often show more dramatic color loss when nutrients are imbalanced.
Peace Lilies are sensitive to fluoride, chlorine, and salts found in municipal tap water. Over time, these minerals accumulate in the leaf tissue, causing yellowing or necrotic brown tips.
While Spathiphyllum thrives in indirect light, insufficient light prevents the plant from maintaining its metabolic processes, leading to chlorosis. For variegated varieties, low light can also cause the white patches to turn yellow or translucent.
