Plants suffering from root rot will have roots that are dark instead of the pale color of healthy roots, or the roots may be mushy and soft or slimy. If you see these signs, let the plant dry out on a stack of newspaper before placing it back in its container with fresh new soil. Make sure the container has drainage holes and that the holes are large enough to provide sufficient drainage.

If you are watering frequently, you may have a waterlogged condition in the soil in the pot. Jade plants can tolerate drying, but not waterlogging.
The roots may be rotting. You may be able to save the plant by removing it from the pot, removing much of the old potting soil, and repotting in a very-well-drained potting soil in a pot with drainage. Take care not to overwater the jade plant, and it should develop healthy roots. Overwatering is not the only factor that causes too much moisture around the roots and turns your poinsettia yellow.
Too much fertilizer can also burn the roots which can turn the leaves yellow as a sign of stress. If your poinsettia is turning black this is usually due to cold or even frost damage. Poinsettias are not cold hardy and very sensitive to frost. Any exposure to the cold can kill a poinsettia so always try to keep it at around room temperature.
If some of your leaves are turning black ensure that these leaves are not in contact with a cold window as frost glass can turn these leaves black. Cut away any frost damaged black leaves that have been exposed to the cold with a pair of pruners.

Leaves dropping could be caused by drastic change in temperature or air flow. How to Revive a Poinsettia that is Dropping Leaves Poinsettia can usually be saved even if it is losing its leaves and appears to be dying, if the causes are underwatering or slight transplant shock but exposure to significantly cold temperatures is likely to cause the poinsettia to die back and it can be difficult for the poinsettia to recover. The way to revive the poinsettia is to provide the optimal growing conditions in your home.
Always locate your poinsettia in warm room to help mitigate stress to the plant. Place the poinsettia in a location that is away from cold draughts, air conditioning, forced air , or so they are not located directly next to any sources of heat that can cause sudden fluctuations in temperatures.
Air currents sap moisture from the leaves causing the to drop off. Move the poinsettia to an area of bright indirect sunlight as it does not tolerate direct sun. Give the poinsettia a good soak. If the dropping leaves is accompanied by yellowing leaves and wilting then check to see if the soil is dry. To identify drought stress, feel the soil at the bottom of the pot through the drainage hole. If it feels completely dry the poinsettia requires a good soak.
Place the poinsettia in a basin of water if it has suffered drought stress. When soil has dried out completely it can sometimes repel moisture off the surface.
