Sad olive tree

Hi there,

We recently bought a couple of olive trees (about 3 months ago) and since the unseasonably wet weather we've been having in South East UK in past few weeks, l've noticed one of them looking very sad (see pictures). Quite a few leaves are dropping along with browning and curling of others.

It was repotted about 2 months ago out of the shop pot and into a terracotta one using a mix of John Innes No 3 compost and 20% horticultural grit so I would assume drainage is not the issue (although it has been raining a lot so will be getting watered a lot naturally..). I have also fertilised it when I potted it using an olive tree fertiliser mix.

Any ideas how I can save it? The other one (bought at same time, treated the same way and sitting right next) to it seems fine.

Thanks!

 

Have you taken it out of pot to make sure its draining properly? Might have a blocked drain hole/ poor drainage.

If so take out rootball dry a bit before putting back in .
I've been trying to get my olives going again had success with the olive focus feed.
