    This Laburnham anagyroides Aschingeri has suffered like this before. Couldn't find a cause but I think it may have slugs.
    It was moved to a newly constructed bed in May this year

    Over the past 6 weeks or so it's been getting worse.

    Also, the new bed has two Sorbaria Sem which are also looking very unhappy

    Have scattered slug killer near the plants but haven't seen any signs of slug activity.
    Any ideas would be very welcome

      Laburnum's are deciduous Bill, they drop their leaves come autumn and will re-shoot in the spring. :)

      Looks like insect attack, laburnum often looks a bit tatty at the end of the season, well mine does. :smile:
