hi all i also have a cotoneaster casualty (my little boy calls them rotten easters) i think i cut to much off the roots also i have a root over rock trident maple which looks as though it wont recover from its initial potting and a few other nursery plants that were pretty sick any how i think that is probaly the one most important thing i have learnt from this,and that is always try to by healthy stock to start with, at the time they seem cheap but not when you bin them several weeks later i think it was o. m.c that had a thread telling us to buy the best stock our budget would allow seems like a good plan to me
regards simon
