Default Kerria Japonica - bad year?


"Steve Harris" wrote in message
...
When cutting down a jungle, I decided to keep a couple of clumps of this
as I thought it was a nice plant. I'm having second thoughts. It looks
unhealthy, scorched leaf margins and yellowing leaves for the last few
months and it's thinned out.

- Has it just been a bad year?
- Old age (probably at least 30 years
- Some nutritional need?
- Disease?

Thanks!

My Kerria has been nothing like as good as usual this year I think its the
result of all the strange weather patterns
I have got loads of shrubs that were half dead in the drought despite daily
watering that are now sprouting new leaves as if it was spring

I dont think the garden knows whether its coming or going
