# Any ideas on why so many leaves are yellowing on my Chinese money…

_Posted by LC on 2026-08-10_

Any ideas on why so many leaves are yellowing on my Chinese money plant? It’s been doing great until last week.

In April I moved it to an east facing window, which it seemed to like. Now that it’s summer is it maybe getting too much sun/heat?

Any advice is appreciated.

Green veins but yellowing tissue is sometimes a lack of fertilizer (with micronutrients like magnesium)

No curving of the leaves so doesn’t seem like a light issue

Are you fertilizing? Lower leaf loss/yellowing is the plant trying to pull from the old to grow something new.

Thank you! I haven’t fertilized regularly. Will do!
