Hi,
I have a small diffenbachia plant that I repotted about three weeks ago. Now the leaves from the middle of the plant are turning yellowish-orange. The leaves above and below are still quite normal looking. Does anyone know how to fix this? My mother suggested giving it bone meal?
Thanks

This may sound strange, but you should undo your repotting and put it back into its original pot. Dieffenbachias like to be potbound so they cen dry out frequently.
