Japenese Wineberries

Hi guys,

Just been doing some re-potting of plants etc. All was going well but I noticed, as I was moving pots about, that my Japenese Wineberry plan in sort of..... bending over, as if it needed staking. The thing is, it is staked in the pot and hasnt reached the top of the steak, it just seems to have decided to fold itself over. It seems happy enough, but all the pictures and info I have seen on the internet doesnt say anything about this - is ot something I am doing wrong do you think, or is that just the way it is?

 

May be it's trying to reach the light?

 

hum. possibly, but it is in the sun until about 1pm so should be ok..... will have a look and check

 

Hi mz ... I bought one of those and not sure about it either. :confused: Mine looks awful .. this is the link I have for it ....

hum, on mine the leaves are white underneath like it says and that was one of the things worrying me, cheers. Seems like it is ok then, its starting to flower now as well. How is yours looking then?

 

... in one word ... sick! In saying that, it has one healthy shot with what appears to be a bud developing so I think I'll cut the other off as soon as I've posted this. As you can see, the strawberries are healthy enough.

Although we've been hot, 36 yesterday, 33 today, this is in a position where it only gets late afternoon/early evening sun ... but it still may be too hot for it.:(

 

oh yes, not loking happy? How often are you watering it? And do you feed it? Mine gets sun all morning so maybe it needs a bit more sun? strwaberries looks fab! Better than mine (v jealous!!)
