Do I just need to remove these dead leaves? Or fertilize? Many thanks

Re: Dead leaves on plant

Hi @KarWren,

 

Have you got any ideas why the leaves on this side might be turning brown?

 

Does water pool against the concrete?

 

I think the best course of action is to remove the dead leaves, tidy up around the base of the plant by removing any leaves or debris and then apply a generalised slow-release fertiliser such as this Scotts Osmocote All Purpose Controlled Release Fertiliser.

 

I wouldn't say it looks particularly unhealthy, but a bit of care would certainly help.

 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

 

Jacob
