How to determine what lily leaves lack: useful tips for a novice gardener
Lack of nutrients always has a negative impact on the decorative qualities of plants, and lilies are no exception.
An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh listed the external signs of deficiency of some nutritional elements.
For example, you can be sure that flowers need nitrogen-containing fertilizer if their leaves first turn pale and then yellow.
A lack of potassium is indicated by poor plant growth, when the development of buds is delayed.
If you notice that your lilies are lagging behind in development and their leaves are drying out, go to the store for a product containing phosphorus.
Paleness of the tips of leaf blades, accompanied by curling of their tips and edges, indicates that the plants need magnesium.
Finally, calcium should be added when the lily's leaves become deformed, which eventually results in them falling off.
Once you determine which element is missing and provide it to the lilies, their condition will return to normal.
