My wisteria is sick, I guess.
I planted it some 3 years ago, froma seed. it's now more than 2 mt.
tall. but in the last few months its leaves have been getting paler and
paler, some have brown dots on it and others are drying.
I don't knoe what to do.
I changed vase, put it in a bigger one, but still the leaves look the
same.
Help!!!!

Hi Anna.

First, where do you live?

Then, is the wisteria kept outside? Is it planted in bonsai
soil? Is it in a deep pot? Or is it in a shallow pot?

How have you been watering it? How have you been fertilizing it?

Is it in full sun? All day?

Pale leaves make it sound like it may be a fertilizing problem.
But it won't do much good to fertilize at this time of year if
you live in the northern hemisphere.

So we need answers to those questions.
