    Tayberries are not evergreen, it looks similar to mine. Most likely reason is cold weather and the leaves getting old. Leave well alone and nature should sort it out with new growth appearing in April.

      Hi

      Look all normal to me your are right frost that has coloured the leaves (ravages of winter) . It was a bit late in the year to feed "October" but they will appreciate a sprinkle around the roots in the middle of march just as they get going again ....
