| Has anyone had trouble with Jack Frost Brunnera? My leaves are getting "wilty" then eventually turn brown and shrivel up. I've been treating with a spray thinking it is powdery mildew. After one week, not much success and have already lost two plants. Any info/suggestions would be appreciated! |

| Mildew makes a grey powdery deposit on the leaves. What have you been spraying with? And why did you think it was powdery mildew? What conditions do you have it in? I find that mine reacts visibly as soon as the sun hits it, although it will perk up again once the shade is back. If you have it in full sun, you might just be overloading the system.

| It does wilt easily. I know when to water by watching the brunnera. Mine have never had powdery mildew. |
