dying jasmine - please help
I've inherited what I think is an evergreen jasmine. It is growing up a
southeast facing wall. It is very green, tangled and bushy. It had a few white jasmine like (looks and scent) flowers in the summer. It now looks like it is dying, with big clumps of leaves going brown. It has not dried out or become waterlogged. Any suggestions please? Should I cut it back? TIA, -- Hayley (gardening on well drained, alkaline clay in Somerset) |

TIA, -- Hayley (gardening on well drained, alkaline clay in Somerset) The summer Jasmine hangs on to its leaves most way through the winter then sheds, mine went about 2 weeks ago, its normal. You can shorted the long trails back now if required, leave short stubs of a few buds on each one, (it will flower better) -- Charlie, gardening in Cornwall. http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of National Plant Collection of Clematis viticella (cvs) |
