Help! Japanese Holly losing leaves! was created by snif96

Posted 4 years 2 months ago #63367
Hi, I got a Japanese holly a few months ago. It's been doing well and had small white flowers when I first got her. But now her leaves are going brown and falling off. I live in Ireland and have kept her inside because I was worried it would be too cold outside (it's about 10deg C outside atm and getting colder). I've made sure the soil is always soft so I don't think she's dehydrated. Is there any way I can revive her? and should I leave her outside in this climate?

The problem is that you kept it inside. Indoor trees do not exist.
Water thorougly with a garden hose or a watering can ( so water spills from the drainage hole underneath) and water again when soil feels dry.
Keep it outside where it should be and hope that it recovers. Give it some protection if temps are so low for so long that the rootball could freeze completely.
To be frankly it doesnt look good for this one, i think its a lost cause, but you never know.
