Daphne odora aureomarginata

Hi all, I have had my Daphne for about 14 years and it has thrived despite being moved several times.

For the last 3 years it has been in a very large pot and doing well until this summer. Although my garden was looked after while I was away, I have come back and the Daphne's leaves are drooping. It seemed water logged so I have moved it out of the pot and into the garden but it doesn't seem any better.

Any advice very welcome.image

Thank you

    I think Verdun is right.

    Leave it and see.

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

  • Verdun is probably right, I don't think age to be moving it.  Did you move it recently?  I don't believe they much like being in wet ground either, if you have moved it to such a place it could otherwise be caused by that. 

  • Thank you all. I moved a few days ago, thinking it was waterlogged and that that was the reason.

    I'll just wait and see, otherwise I'll buy another one. The smell is so wonderful!
