Is This Root Rot?
First of all, heres the picture of one part of the trees leaves
Now, i bought this pyracantha from nursery stock about 2 months ago at the end of june. I repotted it then in a very large pot to let the trunk grow. It went through alittle shock then produced some new growth and was doing fine. A few weeks ago the leaves started changing to this(the picture). I posted about a week ago and i was told it was just going through shock, but now its 2 months from when i repotted. I've been watering lightly everyday(i think pyracantha liked the soil moist all the time ).You can see some small bright green leaves at the end of the shoot that have just grow, so its still producing but more leaves are starting to die like this. Im thinking this might be root rot because i had a smaller pryacantha whose leaves looked exactly the same and eventually died. In the case that it is root rot what should i do? Is it to late? |

There may be more than one thing going on. Those crispy margined leaves are almost certainly the result of dehydration (repotting in July/Aug, may not be the best time, in the future!). The new yellowish leaves may well be an overwatering problem.
Moist all the time is almost certainly too wet. Let the soil dry a bit between waterings and then water thoroughly. Check the ***FAQ*** on watering for a little more info. Good luck, Matt
