Hi
My port wine Magnolia is really suffering. Previously it was vibrant and bushy, however the leaves started to drop and the leaves are going black. I cut away a head of dead material but it continues to deteriorate.
Thoughts please?
Hi Sean
You don't tell us where you live. The problems that come to mind are either a fungal infection which is often a problem during hot humid areas. The second is relating to water, Magnolia like full need sun but stuggle in the midday sun of Australian summers, they need to be well watered during these hot months,
