The plants leaves may turn yellow from age, nutrient deficiency or infestation with pests or disease.
As the fruit ripens, the plant’s older leaves at the base of the crown slowly die back. Although unsightly, this is a natural, harmless process. Cut off the dying leaves to help prevent the spread of rot and to improve air circulation around the plant.
