Hi, I bought two bay trees last July, one of them is now looking very ill. I've watered it, put organic chicken manure in the soil, tried tomato feed in it too but nothing seems to have worked. Is there anything I can do to bring it around?

I have two Heuchera Coral Bell Plants in my garden planted in similar areas, one is fantastic and the other is in trouble, the leaves at the base of the plant have become dry and brittle and essentially are dead, is this as a result of bugs and if so what is the best course of action.

Hi we have 2 yellow bamboo trees in the garden that look like they are on the way out...The stalks are green but the leaves look really dry and brittle. They are positioned where the midday sun comes over the house directly onto them. Any ideas as to how I can regenerate them.
