Choisya- Mexican Orange Blossom

My one year old plant is just beginning to flower quite profusley but in the last few weeks all the leaves are starting to go brown on the ends. I keep the compost damp so I'm sure I'm not over or under watering. Any ideas of the problem?

 

Sounds as if it could do with a good feed to me. How long has it been in the same compost?
If you do change it check it for any grubs that may be lurking.

Other than that, maybe those late frosts, depending on where you are.

Choysias grow quite big and it really would do alot better in the ground.
Hope this helps

 

Thanks alot I'll try re-potting it. I don't think it was frosts as I live in Cornwall but I did cover it when there was a possibility. Thanks again

 

Could it be wind burn? Frosts are a possibility as we've had some bad ones recently, I've lost the leaves on 2 weigelias and a golden mock orange.

 

I have some 'Sundances' and we're a lot windier and colder than you, and they are very hardy. I think they are not happy in pots without a LOT of food. Mine are very happy in the ground.

 

Thanks all at least I now have hope and it doesn't seem to be getting any worse. Thanks again

 

i have one of those in the ground and i also have the same problem of the leaves turning brown, but it is flowering really well . i thought it might be the cold winds that we had a while back ,but i am not sure really . i have got some new green leaves just coming though i hope they dont go brown as well . i was wondering why
