If you cover the leaves of the healthy plant with vaseline, it will block its stomata and therefore it will not remain healthy for a long time. This is because the plant will not get oxygen for respiration. it will not get carbon dioxide for photosynthesis.

Covering the leaves with Vaseline will close the stomatal opening present on leaf epidermis. Stomata help in gaseous exchange and water evaporation or loss from the leaf surface. Hence two major process of plant survival will be affected, which are:-
-- Transpiration ( loss of water from leaf surface )
-- Photosynthesis / Respiration.

Applying Vaseline, in the real-life experiment, it will reduce water loss from the upper surface to moderate and from the lower surface to a minimum ( more stomata is present on lower surface). Gradually the plant will seize its metabolic activity resulting in plant death.
