“Why Do Plants Have to Die?” Asks The Gardener

As hard as one tries, some plants aren’t going to make it to the next growing season and some won’t last as long as you hope. There are many reasons for this. These are the most common.

• You’re watering your plants too often causing them to literally drown in moisture.

• You’re not watering your plants enough causing them to struggle to survive and slowly fade.

• Your plants are not getting enough sunlight causing them to gradually weaken.

• Your plants are getting too much direct sunlight which can dry out some varieties and more or less cook them in the heat of the UV rays.

• You have insects that are eating away at plants, reducing the efficiency of a plant in survival.

• Your plant catches a disease either from the soil, pollen, or carried in from somewhere resulting in its weakening and death.

Another big reason why people aren’t good at taking care of plants is because they’re just too busy. Between work, relationships, and running errands, there sometimes isn’t a whole lot of opportunity to ensure plants are getting what they need.
