choisya ternate hedge - some wilting/shrivelling on some plants and yellowy patches on otherwise  healthy looking plants. Is it lack of water? We have been watering and feeding.

    Do The hedge is new in parts - we keep having to replace some of them but others are thriving.  Last time we replaced some was in March and we have put some extra top soil around them, we’ve fed and watered them regularly.

    It is looking a bit chlorotic. Try a feed for ericaceous plants such as sequestrene.   Maybe your new topsoil is a bit limey.

    I once had a date with a girl called Teresa and didn't know her last name till we met. I was working as a gardener at the time and I asked her what her last name was and she said green. Because I didn't believe her and laughed that was my only date with her 😂😂😂

    Thanks for the anecdote, @BirminghamMarc1972 . Served you right for not believing in the power of "green". ;)
    Anyway, I always wonder how new posters to this forum manage to enter such totally irrelevant titles to their posts. :open_mouth:

    @Papi Jo and therefore not aware that they need to overwrite the box when their name appears ... we old hands are used to it 😉
