dying rose of sharon

18 years ago

One rose of sharon tree has bloomed very well this summer but about two weeks ago, the leaves started turning yellow and the buds are kinda brown looking and not many are blooming at all. The other identical tree planted at the same time is still green and blooming. Am I losing this one? And is there anything I should be doing to help it along? Thanks for any suggestions. Sharon

They are deciduous. They are probably going dormant.
