I have a similar problem. The lower leaves go yellow and drop of. the
new growth however looks fine.......

Mine used to do that. I think that is just part of the natural growth of

the
plant losing the older, lower leaves. However mine has got carried away

and
is dropping the lot! It seems strange how the stems break so easily too

with
barely a nudge - they break cleanly almost like the stems are made of long
sections of lego.
The plant also is not putting out any new growth. I suspect that the whole
plant will be residing in the composter before the Summer is out.

Could it be vine weevil?
