The bits of fungus on the edges of these yellowing geranium (pelargonium) leaves are a clue to over-watering as the cause of its condition. I found this limp-leafed plant in a state of semi-collapse one morning last week.
It is very easy to over-water plants at this time of year, since they are changing their watering requirements, and day-to-day humidity (and hence drying) is varying so much.

Since the roots are fine (white), the plant should recover naturally if left without water for a few days. This will give the compost a chance to dry out.
