I would make sure the bush is not diseased. Take a picture of it, and cut
off an area of the diseased branch, close to where it is located and take
it down to your local plant nursery, to see if he has a clue. You might
also test the soil pH, to see if you need to add soil amendments to bring
it to the optimum condition. You can research your plant to see what pH
it prefers, etc. I have found that using a good ' super thrive ' vitamin
mix will help stressed out plants. I have usually cut away the diseased
portion, then added support stakes, in the vacant spot, to try to
establish the plant to fill in the void. I have also used string, to make
two separate hedges grow together and become one large hedge for privacy
