Hi help with camellia please
My camellia is in a pot and had been looking quite happy
It has lots of buds but some of the
the leaves have gone yellow and the plant generally
doesn’t look as well. It is in a pot on the shady side of the garden. I’ve watered during the summer with Miraclegro
Please can you tell me what I’m doing wrong

losing the odd leaf is normal but it is showing signs of lack of magnesium. Give it some epsom salts a teaspoon in a litre of water. Or use a feed specifically designed for camellias and rhododendrons.

Thank you very much both. I’ve got some camellia food it’s little granules. Is this ok for this time of year and is it ok to repot now or should I leave it till spring ?
