One Lotus not doing well...why?
« on: August 22, 2008, 02:11:55 PM »
All stalks are kaput, but plenty of green near runners.  I trimmed off the dead stuff and fed it with spikes.  No photo, but this is accurate.
The other lotus are doing fine.

Jerry, did you check it for aphids, or spider mites, or any other bugs? If you have them on that one, you may have them starting on the others, just not as infested as yet.  Pictures would help.

I failed to take photos.  It is replanted.  The others are green and healthy.  We did have some fierce dry heat. The others get shade
