Camellia leaves look sick, rotten and fall off (for example). What happened?

The most common cause of camellia leaf curl is disease! There is only one common disease of camellia, that is, damping-off disease. If you find that your camellia leaves are curly and dry, seriously, the leaves will keep falling off, and even some unopened buds will fall off. At this time, it is very likely that you have leaf blight, which is the wilt of camellia.

A way to save the situation

Camellia with damping-off disease needs to cut off some diseased leaves in time. Then we need to spray the plants with chlorothalonil solution once a week. At this time, try not to fertilize, control the amount of water, not too many times, dry and wet can be seen.

2. Soil causes

Camellia grows in unsuitable soil, which will also lead to dry and curly leaves, because Camellia likes to grow in acidic soil. If the soil in the flowerpot is too alkaline, it will lead to leaf curl, dryness and falling leaves.

A way to save the situation

Once the acidity of the soil is not enough to affect the growth of camellia, we need to replace the soil in the hole basin in time, or apply ferrous sulfate, or add some white vinegar when watering the flowers to achieve the purpose of soil acidification. Pay attention to whether the soil of camellia is severely hardened. If the soil is hardened, we need to loosen it in time, because the hardened soil is generally much more alkaline.

3. The reason for watering

The accumulation of water in the basin will also lead to the poor growth of camellia, and its performance will also lead to the phenomenon of dry leaves. We all water camellia according to the principle of seeing dry and seeing wet, but many flower lovers may still not grasp the principle of seeing dry and seeing wet. Mistakes in judgment will cause long-term water accumulation in flowerpots. Water accumulation will cause hypoxia to the roots of camellia, and then rot.

A way to save the situation

If it is caused by improper watering, then we just need to control the amount and frequency of watering. At the same time, a flowerpot with stronger water permeability can be replaced, which is convenient for excess water to flow out when watering. So don't worry about watering too much at once.
