Black spots on Jade Plant


Question
My beautiful Jade Plant has developed black spots that don't scrape off and spread to the edges then the leaf turns yellow and falls off.  What is this and what can I do?  I do NOT over water it.  Live in FL and it's on the lanai.

Answer
Hi Janenne,

My expertise is limited to indoor plants where the environment is more controlled. Those spots may be due to excess sun, pests, fungal infections or high temperatures, as well as improper watering. There are just too many factors outdoors for me to be able to make an accurate determination.

Check with a gardening expert familiar with your area.

Regards,
