Problem with my guara plant.

Question

My guara’s leaves are turning red on the edges and dying starting at the bottom undersid of the plant. Causes?

Answer 1

Depending on the variety that you are growing, I believe this is a normal color pattern for the leaves on your plant.

Check the plant for any signs of pests or spots or marks on the leaves.

If this is a new planting, make sure your are adequately watering. Once established they are generally quite drought tolerant.
A new planting needs time to send the tap root deep into the soil.
