Osmanthus fragrans is a potted plant with white flowers and a fragrant smell. If it is well cared for, it can be grown for many years and become an elegant bonsai. It is also called Wanlixiang, Qilixiang, etc. So is it normal for Osmanthus fragrans to drop leaves after transplanting?

What should I do if the leaves of the newly repotted Osmanthus fragrans fall off?

After transplanting, the sweet olive will drop leaves. It depends on the situation of the leaf loss. If it is within a short period of time and only a small amount of leaves are lost, there is no problem. This is normal. Generally, there is a ten-day seedling acclimatization period. During this period, it should be placed in a ventilated, cool, and sunny place.

Don't water the soil in the pot when it's too dry. Keep it slightly moist, but without water accumulation. If there are a few yellow leaves or fallen leaves, just clean and trim them. After about ten days, the leaves will return to normal.

If the root system is too damaged during transplanting, or if it is exposed to strong sunlight after transplanting, the soil in the pot is waterlogged, and it is placed in a place with poor ventilation, it will cause the leaves to fall off. We can cut the branches to reduce the consumption of nutrients, do not give fertilizer, and place it in a cool and ventilated place for a while.

What to do if the leaves of Osmanthus fragrans wilt

Try to keep the mulch, dig it out of the pot and place it in a cool place for a few hours. If there is water, put it in a high place to drip it out. Pour out all the soil in the flower pot and dry it to remove most of the water. Neutralize it with dry flower mud until the flower mud clumps when you grab it with your hand and it falls apart when you touch it with your hand. Replant it and place it in a cool place for cultivation. Never water the pot soil until it is completely dry. When placing the flower pot, put stones at the bottom of the pot so that the excess water can flow out of the pot in time when watering. This is very important. Remember, the flowers must be completely dry and wet when watering.

Why does the osmanthus shed its leaves?

1. Lack of water. Forget about watering when the weather is good. Lack of water causes the leaves of the sweet olive to fall.

2. Too much water. Waterlogging in the pot soil will affect the root breathing, causing problems for the entire plant and eventually causing leaf shedding.

3. Not enough light. Murraya is a sun-loving plant and needs more light. If there is no light for a long time or the light is too weak, leaves may fall.

4. Improper fertilization and fertilization time without paying attention to the concentration of fertilizer. High concentration will burn the root system and naturally cause leaf fall;

5. Ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature changes too much in a short period of time, the sweet olive cannot adapt and will naturally experience leaf fall.
