Choisya ternata Aztec Pearl leaf drop

standard Choisya and so I suspect it may have been the victim of strong winds. Frost damage will cause die back but overall it should survive. Maybe a feed will perk it up? Thank you. I'll give it a good feed this week as the weather turns wetter. Epsom by MrsMG

Clematis going yellow

it some calcified seaweed as a general tonic and a foliar spray of Epsom Salts - 2 tablespoons per gallon of water - which will give it magnesium. I have the same problem with nellie moser she is rather jaundice but she is doing her second flowering by joslow

Sickly plants ? Try asprin.

deficiency a dose of salts ! Epsom that is - one tablespoon per gallon of water. I use this on my pelargoniums early spring to give them a boost but you can use this method on any plants with yellowing leaves . I have rescued many a plant using these methods by jean riley

Yellowing leaves

move into bigger pots planting slightly deeperKeep warm, out of drafts.... If there's a lack of anything, it's more likely magnesium. If repotting doesn't sort it, try spraying the foliage with Epsom salts. by CLER

What is going on with my Clematis?

with the feed. I have also heard that yellowing of leaves can be caused by a mineral deficiency that can be treated with epsom salts. Your thoughts on this would be appreciated. Epsom salts contain magnesium which is good for terating chlorosis, or yellowing by Joolz13
