Snail vine plant has dropped all its leaves

Question

Snail vine was beautiful..the leaves started to show a change in color from vigorous healthy green to a light yellow green then all fell off???..is this rust fungus? And will vine come back with new growth? Bare vines are still green…how do I treat..have cleaned up all fallen leaves and not sure what to do to remedy

Answer 1

This sounds like a case of nitrogen deficiency. Use a fertilizer that is high in nitrogen, along with some dolomitic lime, as this controls pH, and sometimes the problem is not a deficiency but a pH issue. It cannot hurt your plant, and will only help anyways. I use dolomitic lime in all of my plants. These things should bring your plant back, as long as it is currently still alive.
