Yellow leaves on Skimmia

  • Mine has also got yellow leaves on it which I think is due to it being in strong sun will the leaves go back to dark green ?

    Lesley, I give mine a watering with the stuff I use for rhodos and azaleas.

    Thanks Joyceimage.  A bit late for that one as it just got worse and worse and I dug it up last year.  I have a small one in a pot waiting to go into a shadier bed when I get organised and I'll use the azalea stuff for it then.

    Verdun, you forget that Scotland has had more than enough water since the spring image

    Also, wind burn and frost damage is the norm, not sun scorch image

    Wish we were as fortunate as you re weather conditionsimage

  • Too much water. I've seen them go like this when left in a tray in the garden centre I used to work at. When there's a lack of oxygen to the roots this can happen - just the same in clay, very retentive soils.
