Shrubs half dead

wrote: OK, got another couple of questions for you. About 5 years ago I planted a couple of little bushes/shrubs in one of my borders. I forget what sort they were, but the first one, although it was a slow grower, seems to have not grown at all. Looks rather unhealthy and has dead bits on. I did pull back the gravel and put a bit of compost round the roots earlier this year, but hasn't done much good. Heres a pic of the first... http://tinyurl.com/l2syret The second bush/shrub does seem to have grown. But looks rather sparse and also has dead bits on it. http://tinyurl.com/mmtok8t I know its getting into autumn, but they don't look much better in the summer. Clearly they're not very happy, anything I can do to try and improve their look? Thanks in advance! Ji Simon You don't say where you live but we have had a very dry summer and I think they could just be in need of a drink. Rain is forecast but if they were mine I'd give then a jolly good soak. I'll leave it to those with better eyesight than mine to give you names. Nice Autumn colours and they don't look too bad. Pam near Bristol |
