Leaves looking a little yellow, and you
are sure virus or lack of nitrogen is not the
cause? Try watering your lilies with Epsom
Salts. The recipe calls for 1/4 cup epsom
salts to 1 gallon warm water. Mix till dissolved
then water your plants well and watch them green
up within 2 weeks. Why does Epsom salts work?
It's the magnesium content that helps the plants.
Magnesium deficiency can cause reduced growth,
marginal or interveinal chlorosis on older leaves,
cupped leaves, and reduced seed production. This
treatment can be applied to all plants, especially
geraniums. If you have sandy soil chances are
your plants could use an extra dose of magnesium!
