dipladenia plant

Question

We brought the plant indoors for the winter. Now the leaves are turning yellow and falling off. Is this normal? I read a few articles but couldn’t find an answer.

Thank you.

Answer 1

It is normal and common for plants to lose some leaves when they are brough indoors. The cause is usually the lower light levels indoors, which light-loving plants like Dipladenia have trouble with. If you can provide more light (natural or artificial) it will help. See this article for other options:
