This ZZ plant was in my living room, so I transplanted it, and moved it to my bedroom. It was fine, 2 weeks ago I checked and it was still green and growing a new shoot. Today I checked and the main plant leaves are turning yellow! Is the plant going to die? What should I do to improve Zelda’s condition?
Has the light direction changed with the moved? Is it getting the same amount of light it was getting? Does it need fertilizer? Is it getting too much water?
좋아요 1개 The light changed, I have growing lights in The living room, while here is receiving sunlight that goes into the window of the bedroom. Water and fertilizer have been on schedule.

It then lost the stem. It had no leaves or stem, just the rhizome under the soil. I just kept watering it when the soil was dry and kept it in a sunny spot. It took months, but it sprouted…. Just don’t overwater, make sure you only water when the soil is dry.
Thanks!
