I have a similar problem to Jo, above. My plant was planted in a container last year. It has come through the winter well and started to produce a few flowers which didn’t fully develop. Now the leaves are drooping and turning yellowish. Advice needed please before it’s too late!
Hi Jo - can you add a photo for members to look at? If you have a photo reply to yourself or me and then you can add up to 3 images by clicking 'browse'. Click submit to add to the forum. It might help to identify what is wrong. Cheers Nicola
my Daphne is looking VERY sad the flower buds had started to appear but have now stopped and look as if they will not mature the leaves are sagging and turning brown. I dont know if it has suffered from the drought or has an infection but I am unable to see anything on the leaves or stems
