Spring-planted Portuguese laurel showing slight yellowing on some plants. Bonemeal was added at time of planting. Can you suggest a cause/remedy or, is it a seasonal thing?

Bottle Brush' didn't survive the severe frost of last winter. As it appears this is a very tender plant, is it risky replacing it with the same again or,what would be a good alternative and of similar growth habit?

Would 7:6:17 be a suitable fertilizer for lawns both in spring & autumn or should one use a higher nitrogen content during the growing season and use the lower nitrogen content (7:6:17) in autumn?

In the past I have heard you advocate the use of mulching mowers as they return nutrients to the lawn. Does this suggest then, that one ought to use a low nitrogen fertilizer- NPK 14:3:9 - (available in supermarkets) as a supplement rather than the recommended high nitrogen content?
