I have two Ming Aurelia plants that I have had for a long time. Up to now they have thrived, but lately they have yellow leaves and or small branches falling off. What things should I check for? I have had aurelias for a long time and never a problem before.

Be sure that the roots are not staying soggy wet - that is the main (and most common)problem with these plants.If yours are getting old, the soil in the pots may have lost its air spaces. I would not repot, but if you can take one out to look at the soil, and it looks compact, you could cut a slice off the side of the soil ball, put it back into the same size pot and fill the space with nice open soil.
