[IBC] Unhappy Privet
I have a Privet (Ligustrum Sinesis) that has been unhappy lately. It is
indoor, in a south facing window, plenty of light, roots seem fine, temp mid-sixty's or higher, and humidity tray but still it seems unhappy. Slowly the leaves have partially dried out and then dried completely and dropped. The leaves feel generally droopy and even though it is producing new leaves some of the new ones even dry and drop. I've carefully checked for any pests and it seems fine and I see no evidence of anything mildew related either. The only symptoms I see are the leaves drying out and/or drooping. I'm careful but the only thing I can come up with is perhaps over-watering? It is confusing because the leaves turn dark green at the end only, then they dry completely and drop (not sure if that's how over-watering would affect it). These Privets are usually bulletproof, it does not seem root-bound or does not have rotten roots. It's neighbor privet has a few leaves doing the same, and this privet has done this before, just never this severe. Our winter has been severe and it is near a window, but that's where it wintered last year with no problems. I'm letting it dry out a little now since it only has a few bundles of leaves left. Any ideas? ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Jerry Meislik++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
