# Hi yall - I got this dragon fruit plant almost 2 years ago now -…

Hi yall -

I got this dragon fruit plant almost 2 years ago now - although it grew in length from its original height, it also has taken on a more yellowish hue from its original bright green colour. Is the a sign of overwatering or something else? Any suggestions would be appreciated 💚 thank you

Overwatering. Something I found is indispensable is a water meter. They are only a few bucks and so handy.

Overwatering can cause yellowing. Check the roots. Check the roots for an overgrowth condition and repot.

Too much sun/heat can cause yellowing on cacti as shown on my queen of the night cactus.

How long has it been since you've repotted it
