I would know the name of the plant but my
girlfriend thinks keeping the little planting tags is "tacky"! We
planted it
about three weeks ago, and neither of us can remember the name of it!

Anyway it is red leaf, red stem, about thirty cm tall (grows to a
maximum of
two metres).

I'd suggest you ask your gf to list everything you plant in that case AND
its location in your garden! If she doesn't like those labels - and I
agree
with her BTW - invest in Dymo!
In the meantime, try looking at a Photinia on Google Images and see if
that
rings a bell.

Sacha, you could be a detective! :¬)

After looking on Google images, a Photinia is indeed the problem plant!

Glad it helped, she says, pulling the deerstalker lower over her head......
But now, unhappily for you, you have to find out what is wrong with your
plant. Inspect the roots is certainly good advice that you've received, I
think?
