Where's the Foliage?

14 years ago

Howdy,

What to do?

For some reason, my older Adeniums are not leafing as fast as they should.

Two are blooming, but leaves are sparse. Strange.

They're getting enough sun..don't think they'd bloom if they weren't.

The only thing I did different last winter.....

Normally, my Adeniums are summered outdoors, and wintered before west and south windows.

Last winter, 'I heard this is how to over-winter Adeniums,' they were placed in a lower light spot. Much lower than they're usual area.

The room is cool, but usually 'most' leaves remain on Adeniums throughout, but because they got less light, every single leaf dropped.

Is that normal?

Anyone know what needs to be done? Fertilizer? If so, which kind? Adeniums are usually fertilized with Fish Emulsion.

They haven't had any this summer. My fault, but I've repotted over 100 plants, we're painting the house and outside gardening.

Advice please? Toni
