buxus

horryhorry Posts: 1

My small buxus plants have turned yellow.  It may be because I bought them

at a store instead of a nursery.   They were cheap, too cheap Rassells said.

I'll buy one of theirs and see.   I wonder if my sheltered ledge garden is too hot.

Some Other plants don't like it either.  The main effect is autumnal.  Sad.

    Are they in pots or the ground?  Maybe the store let them dry out before you bought them, and they've only just started to protest.  I don't think they mind heat as long as they have enough water.

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    my buxus are the same turning yellow. Mine are established bushes in pots. I changed the soil this spring but are looking rather sad. What is the best feed for these bushes?
