camelia


Question
We have a camelia recently transferred to a larger tub, It's leaves are turning brown from the tip upwards and buds have all dried up. Where the tub is situated it gets early morning sun and afternoon shade, I give it a good watering once a week. We live in Toowoomba.
Thankyou for your help  

Answer
Kerry,
It ounds like the Camelia went into transplant shock after it was replanted. I would recommend pruning the plant back a little and giving it a light shot of fertilizer to stimulate regrowth. Increase your watering to several days a week- do not let the soil dry out.
I wish you luck.
