    Hi all, my ceanothus' leaves have started going brown and crispy - they crumble when touched. There are still a fair amount of green shoots and leaves though. Could it be frost or do you think its in trouble? I'll add some photos. Any help valued as not sure how to help it. Thanks in advance.

    Its likely to be frost and strong freezing winds if you caught the same weather as I got in Feb.

    I've got a couple the same, one caught the winds more than the other and has been damaged more.

    I'm waiting to see where new shoots come from before doing anything.

    I usually give them a trim after flowering anyway.

      That's great, thank you Pete. I'll give it a little longer and see how it does. Kate
