Euonymus

Has anyone got any advice for our Euonymus Japonica border that we planted last summer? We’ve had a particularly cold and prolonged winter with months of snow and ice in the north-east of Scotland. Many stems are dark brown and soft to the touch, other parts of the plant seem completely unaffected with green stems and new growth. Does anyone have any advice on how to revive these?

I can’t help but maybe @melvynprentice or @richard.spicer.7906 can? 🤞🤞

I think Andrew that you may have already answered your own question. Unfortunately it does look like the effect of your long and sustained cold winter that you experienced this year. Trim back plants quite hard, by half at least, but hold fire in doing this for another week. I have just seen forecast and looks like you maybe in for a short cold spell. After cutting back feed with fish, blood and bonemeal, forking lightly into the soil. Hope this works for you @andrewhood84 @jacaranda

Thank you, Melvyn. 👍😘 @melvynprentice

Thanks all, I’ll give it a go and let you know how I get on. We get quite high winds where we are as well which probably doesn’t help matters.
