Azalea wilting and going brown - help!

-weedkiller of any sort-the only other thing it might be is vine weevil grub attack -tip out of the pot and look for white grubs But I'm afraid there is not much hope-I don't think taking the middle out of it would have killed it by Glitzy

Heucheras

They need vine weevil treatment...Provado or nematodes. Don't use both. It's either or. Viine weevils are number one enemy.They need splitting every couple of years and deep planting.I remove all leaves in late winter and clean up the crowns then feed by scotkat

Drooping Cucumber Plants

is certainly worth trying, though I wonder if you have vine weevil grubs eating the roots. They're c- shaped White grubs with brown heads. If feasible, it might be worth taking the plant out ( being very careful not to damage the crown) and having a look by Matthew Rowe

Do you think...

wanted! Err...can you describe the larvae? I'm just a bit concerned with your comment of little root growth, they might be vine weevil larvae. Yes, I too would be more concerned about the larvae than the smallness of the saplings - can you as Klink by Klink

Purple foliage plants for shade?

, and you shoudl get four or five young healthy ones. And watch out for vine weevil larvae, which love heucheras. I water my best ones twice a year with Provado Vine Weevil Killer as a protective measure. If you see one looking poorly, treat these pests by Viola111
