Block strong light: If the leaves wither due to strong light exposure, they should be blocked from light as soon as possible, or moved to a ventilated place with astigmatism.
Replenish water: If the soil is dry and yellow due to drought, water should be replenished as soon as possible. It is best to water it thoroughly so that it can absorb enough water.
Proper warmth preservation: If you suffer from frostbite due to low temperature, you should take measures to keep warm as soon as possible, and the minimum temperature should be controlled above 5℃.
Prevention and control of pests and diseases: If it is caused by infection with pests and diseases, pesticides should be sprayed as soon as possible, and the environment must be changed later.
1. Block strong light
The withered leaves of Clematis are probably sunburned by strong light. Although it likes light, the light in summer is too strong. If it is exposed to strong light for a long time, its leaves will easily get sunburned and become withered and yellow. If this happens, it must be shaded as soon as possible, and the potted plant should be moved to a place with astigmatism and ventilation. It is best to spray water around the clematis frequently, which can help it regain its vitality and resume normal growth as soon as possible.
2. Supplement water
Clematis likes a humid environment and has slight drought tolerance, but it consumes a lot of water during the peak growing season. If it is not watered for a long time, the soil will be dry and dehydrated, and it will not be able to absorb water. The leaves will turn yellow and wither. If this is the case, water it immediately and thoroughly so that the roots at the bottom can absorb the water and resume normal growth as soon as possible. Note that if you find that the pot soil is dry later, you must water it immediately, especially during the peak growing season.
3. Proper warmth
Clematis likes a warm environment and has slight cold tolerance. However, if it is exposed to low temperature for a long time, it will cause frost damage and the leaves will turn yellow and wither. If you suffer from frostbite due to low temperature, you should take measures to keep warm as soon as possible. Potted clematis can be moved indoors, and the minimum temperature should be kept above 5°C. If it is planted on the ground, it is recommended to cover the root system with straw or old cotton clothes to keep warm and ensure that it survives the winter safely. When cultivating, it is necessary to select suitable varieties according to the environment of the region.
4. Prevention and control of pests and diseases
Withered leaves of clematis may also be caused by infection with pests and diseases, such as powdery mildew, Botrytis , aphids, red spider , etc. Once pests and diseases are discovered, cut off the diseased leaves as soon as possible and spray corresponding drugs for treatment. In addition, the environment must be changed in the later stage, paying special attention to ventilation, humidity, and temperature. Only by having a suitable environment can we avoid reinfection.
