My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Butterfly bush yellowing

5 years ago
last modified: 5 years ago

I have a trio of Butterfly bushes and the center one is turning yellow. I have had internal foliage turn yellow on all three and attribute this to some type of fungal problem and I have applied anti-fungals. This one bush is yellow all over, almost a yellow cast. Is it missing some type of nutrient or is it a bigger fungal problem?

I am a Michigan gardener struggling to learn to garden in Georgia clay.

Any help would be appreciated.
