I think it’s probably got too dry, it’s planted very close to the house so any rain may be missing it. I suppose it hasn't been damaged at the base or a dog pee’d on it?

It's planted in a planter and gets watered most days it's a strange one as it was growing really well then all of a sudden its not looking great and the leaves have gone droopy.
Beware - if it likes its spot it will become rampant! We had it in our last garden and it went all along the fence drooping down both our side and our neighbour's. Luckily we all liked it. Ours was East facing then.
It looks like the container is very small. It's likely that it's become completely dehydrated, and if the container is small, there'll be a limit to how much moisture and nutrition it can take up. As @Lyn says - right up next to a wall - always dry. Rain can't get in - especially when the foliage is there.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Thank you for the help
I thought they were evergreen?

The dog can't get to it.
I've fed it plant food a few times
