# My poor Clusia is now turning yellow on the top leaf!! I just…

_Geplaatst door Embarquez op 2023-08-25_

My poor Clusia is now turning yellow on the top leaf!! I just received her in the mail 2 days ago. When I unwrapped her she was covered in scales, so I removed them and bathed her, and then potted her in a tropical mix 1:1:1 perlite/potting soil/orchid bark. She was also packaged in a brown paper bag filled with sphagnum. I shared a pic of her roots when I unpacked her. I read that yellowing leaves is overwatering, should I take her roots out of the soil a bit and let her dry? Or Is this just stress and I'm overreacting?
