Saw this about fatsia japonica and thought I would ask the following.
My plants are about ten to twelve years old and do all the normal things like wilting, yellowing etc. However this year we have had a lot more rain than usual and some of the plants have stems/trunks that seem to be dry in the centre and green on the perimeter and they are dying. Is this due to root rot or something?

Thanks Bamboo. I think it will be the soil and water combination. I have had the soil broken up and added goat muck. The weather is much drier now so hopefully the new plants that I have put in will be fine.

Not sure what that could be really - you will obviously have pests and diseases there that we don't have here, but its true they like well drained soil.
