Conifer going brown
Can anyone please offer any advice regarding my potted conifer which has started to go brown and brittle. Its not all over, just at the back of the conifer which faces the wall. What if anything can I do to restore it to its original lovely green condition.
Many thanks Sarah |

Make sure that it is kept moist and is fed regularly. Is the pot large enough for a conifer of its size? Another point to consider is whether the damage is indicative of a cat or fox marking their territory. Sometimes there is a tell-tale odour, if that is the case. Regards, Emrys Davies. |

Conifers do not like to be shaded and one next to a wall will always die back on that side, they do the same if you allow another plant to grow next to them. If there is no green showing then that bit is dead and will never regrow. -- Regards Bob In Runnymede, 17 miles West of London |
