Hi, I have just refurbished my house and garden, normally lawnmower is a sheep or two!? Now having put so many man hours in livestock are locked out. I have planted about 70 planters on the patio area and its keeping me rather busy. I have a 2ft magnolia in a pot and the leaves are starting to turn brown and look as though they are dying. I am so confused after looking on the internet as I have read conflicting info. Is this normal,or do you suspect snail/slug activity? I have read that the specimen is evergreen and also deciduous. Many thanks in advance for any advise, thanks.
