Weigela Florida Tango not looking well
Hi all
Last weekend I planted a Weigela Florida Tango in my front garden (quite clayey soil) but it's not settling in well. The leaves are drooping and a lot of them have curled up and died. It's in a corner location between the house and a tall hedge, but gets a fair amount of sun in the afternoon from the south-west direction. I have watered it every evening. I don't want to lose this plant - can anybody advise me on what I might be doing wrong here? Thanks, Helen -- (remove the last letter of the alphabet to e-mail me) |

'Helen',
This is strange. You do not say whether the plant has ample root structure or whether it has been dug up and transplanted. Either it is lacking water or the clay is acting as a sump, preventing adequate drainage causing the plant to sit in water.
