This happened to my Fukien and I narrowed it down to the fact that I over fertilized it. When Spring came around and it was time to repot, that seemed to cure the problem. It grew again with very dark green leaves.

Another Fukien I had had an aphid investation and it's leaves turned yellow and started falling off. I got rid of the pests and the leaves once again turned green.

Pests, over fertilization and too much water seem to be a few of the culprits of yellow leaves.
