Faded leaves
My leaves of my Indian blanket are looking dull green and yellowing from the inside out. The flowers are beautiful and vibrant. They were being watered daily (15 minutes) in the heat of zone 9. Am@I watering too much?

Overwatering could be a cause of this (which is probably your case), but too much sunlight could cause this as well!
To help the overwatering problem go ahead and follow these to make sure EXACTLY when to water your plant:
- Dip your finger into the soil until the first knuckle
- If your finger comes out with a little soil stuck to it, don’t water.
- If it comes out clean it’s time for a nice drink!
Indian blankets like FULL SUN so they are pretty tough but sometimes what can happen is some burning(which I don’t think is the case because burning normally shows as browning on leaves or flowers)!
Anyway, good luck with your plant friend and I wish you you best! ❤️🌱🪴

@plantcrazed thank you for your thoughtful response! I’ll wait to water instead if scheduled watering. Appreciate it!
