Hi all,

This is my first time posting and I’m in need of some insight.

I have a money tree from Easy Plant and it’s been doing fantastic this past spring and summer.

Recently it’s started to have many yellowing leaves that drop off. There’s been no changes to the watering schedule or light it receives.

Any ideas on what might be happening? I appreciate everyone’s time!

Sunlight angles and light intensity changes with the season. The amount and duration of sunlight it gets changes. Try adding a grow light at the top or back to ensure it’s getting a fixed amount of light for at least 12 years a day.

If your area gets colder in winter season. Then, the room might be colder making the plant use less water. Overwatering can cause yellowing. Verify the plant needs water before watering.

Spring and summer are the growing season. The plant will grow slower in fall and winter. 🪴🍀

Thanks I also have a money tree and yes the weather is getting colder and I plan on getting a grow light for all my plants ❤️

Mine has some too like that. But then also growing new leaves! I didn’t really find a solution either. Just broke off brown or yellow stuff and kept doing what I was doing!
