Sick Citronella

ainacio
9 years ago

Hello,

My citronella appears to be very sick. Can anyone help me understand what I'm doing wrong? Some background:

- it gets a lot of sun from about 6am to noon
- I recently planted it and used a ready-mixed miracle grow (Moisture control potting mix)
- It was doing very well for about a month then got super sick
- One day, I noticed a bunch of white stuff on it. I'm wondering if this is bird poo
- Another day, I noticed a big hole in the soil. I'm wondering if a bird dug a hole.
- The plant sits on the balcony, about 30 stories up.
- Roughly 3 days ago, I used my scissors to cut off the sad leafs: leafs that were very brown, white, or very damp and moist (to the point that they sat on the soil and lost all composure)

Thanks in advance.
