"Fredagsmys" Is the Swedish Way to Make Your Friday Nights Extra Cozy

Give greenery a new lease on life by watering until the soil is moist, but not saturated. Liza Wheeler, plant expert and blogger at Good to Grow, points out that there's often a lag between the problem at hand and leaves changing color – but that doesn't mean you can't fix the issue. They're absent The plant is: Thirsty. "Underwatered plants won't put out new growth," Wheeler says.

Tovah Martin, garden expert and author of The Indestructible Houseplant , attributes the sudden ombre look to overwatering. "Water less frequently, but don't withhold water entirely," she says.
