Escallonia rubra - Redclaw
Hi, I need some help.
I've made a big mistake and moved my redclaw from the front to the back of the flower bed as it was getting ready to flower.
Now the leaves have all drooped, turned yellow/black and dropped off.
At first i thought it was just transplant shock but after 2 weeks of good watering the plant has not revived.
It is still alive as the main stem is still a lush green under the outer bark.
I'm hoping that it will settle in and be back to health come next summer.
Any advice on anything that can be done in the meantime will be greatly appreciated. 🙏
