prunus mume

16 years ago

I am trying to grow this tree, this is the third year. Once again this year,

the foliage looks sort of wilted, despite plenty of water and absolutely no

evidence of any insects on the leaves/branches. It was like this last spring,

and gradually got worse and worse looking through the late summer and fall.

I didn't know if it would survive the winter, it looked so bad.

But it had a few more blossoms this year and quite a lot more leaves and little branches.

Is this a normal appearance for this tree, or is there an explanation for this appearance? Any advice would be appreciated.
