pansies

Can anyone tell me what is making my pansies in pots go yellow(leaves) and start to die off? :confused: Could it be wilt? Thanks

 

What sort of compost or soil have you used in your pots Anthea? Would they possibly recover with some gentle feeding with a general tomato feed at the recommended concentration>?
Nice name!

 

why thankyou kind sir I've been using multipurpose but we have had loads of rain recently and I haven't been out as much as I should so I think you could be right and they need a feed. I will let you know if it works

 

hi anthea

i had some pansy's in pots last year which went yellow and died i was that excited on planting them out into my new pots i forgot to check if they had holes in the bottom !!!

so they got water logged thats why mine went yellow ,

thought i would post as you say you have had lots of rain and they are in pots just have a little look to make sure the drainage is ok.

 

Hi cattwoman

You are probably right.Can't believe how much rain the east coast has had recently when I keep hearing about soaring temps and eveyone saying the garden needs water. I am very pleased to hear from someone in Stoke as I am trying to trace a family member there. I might ask you if you know if certain streets still exist, if you don't mind? :D

 

hi anthea

sorry for the delay in my reply been busy draining my garden with all the RAIN feel free will give it my best shot and hope your panys are doing ok
