Light discomfort: too strong or too weak environmental light of Anthurium andraeanum will cause it to appear yellow leaves. At this time, shade or fill the light in time. Excessive fertilization: too frequent fertilization will burn its root system and make it appear yellow leaves. At this time, wash the soil with water and stop fertilizing for a period of time. Soil discomfort: the soil that feeds it is not permeable or too alkaline, which can also lead to yellow leaves. At this time, it is necessary to replace it with a new soil with weak acidity and good permeability.

I. light discomfort

1. Reason: red palm likes soft light, which is suitable for growing in the environment with scattered light. If the light in the environment where it is raised is too strong, it may be sunburned, resulting in yellow leaves. If the light in its environment is too weak, it may cause poor growth and yellow leaves.

2. Solution: change it to a place with soft scattered light. If the light is too strong, you can use a shading net to block the light. If the light is too weak, you can use the electric lamp to supplement the light

2. Excessive fertilization

1. Reason: it prefers fertilizer, which can be applied every 7-10 days during maintenance. But if the fertilizer is applied too frequently, the fertilizer that it can't absorb and use in time will stay in the soil, causing damage to its root system, thus making it appear yellow leaves.

2. Solution: put the flowerpot into a large water basin, wash its flowerpot with plenty of water, and wash away the residual fertilizer. Then dry the soil and stop fertilizing for a period of time, wait for it to recover.

III. soil discomfort

1. Reason: it prefers the flower soil with good permeability and weak acidity. If the soil that raises it is not enough to breathe or alkaline is too strong, it also can grow badly, appear yellow leaf..

2. Solution: take the plant out of the basin, trim off rotten roots and yellow leaves. Then use saprophytic soil, river sand and vegetable soil to make soil suitable for its growth, and plant it in new soil for maintenance.
