Yellow leaves on a jasmine

[Nickmozz]

Hi there

Final question from me... I have a jasmine in a pot bought last year.  It has been potted on this year.  It has lots of lovely new leaf buds on it but they are opening as a yellow colour rather than a green.  They look healthy enough but is there something this plant is lacking?  Any help very much appreciated!

Usually yellow leaves means nitrogen deficiency, but it could also indicate lack of potassium, phosphate or iron/manganese.

I suggest you use a proprietary houseplant food, e.g. baby bio or miracle gro for indoor plants and see if it improves.

It could also mean that you have a variegated species of that plant.

Its the flowers.....the green leaves will come later nin the summer. Correct time of the year too.
