Even if the room linden is considered easy to care for, care errors can lead to problems with the plant. However, brown leaves or brown spots on the leaves are less due to incorrect care than to an unsuitable location.
Brown leaves are often a sign of sunburn
As a rule, the room linden simply got a sunburn. It would like to be in a light position, but does not tolerate strong sunlight. It is better to place your linden tree in a bright east or west window, not in a south-facing window. On the other hand, yellow leaves indicate care mistakes.
The essentials in brief:
- usually a sign of sunburn
- first aid: change location
- ideal location: bright, but not in the direct sun
- better east or west window, no south window
tips
At the first signs of brown leaves or spots, you should move your lime tree to a different spot that is bright but not in direct sun.
