QuestionAll my princess plants are getting orange leaves this year. This is the first year this has happened. What does it mean and what should I do?
Thank you
Frank
AnswerFrank, this is usually an indication of a lack of iron in the soil. You can add an iron supplement to the soil for a quick correction to the problem. For long-term success, I would amend the soil with organic matter that includes peat, aged manure, and compost. These materials will balance the ph levels, improve the tilth of the soil, and provide a constant supply of nutrients throughout the growing season.
For your convenience, attached is a link to a product that will help correct the problem with the foliage discolorization.
