Pests, Diseases and Cures

Hello I would appreciate some help. I have a hedge, some of it is healthy and strong but others have yellowing leaves which fall. What can I do to help it.

I used Westland Plant Rescue to get rid of scab on an apple tree and I think it would work on rust. I've a suspicion it's on the 'withdrawn list' but you might be able to get hold of some.

Try training them. If it's successful you'll become famous.

Fair point, will try disbudding one plant and see how its compares to the others over the next few weeks.

Good morning @GenghistheDog my friend no worries ,you are always most welcome

It's got a waxy coating which sheds weedkiller, you need to bruise a few stems and bend them over into a pot of neat roundup. Cover it to keep the rain out and let the plant absorb it.

Hi, thanks Pete This could be what's happening then. Makes sense. Thanks
