advice re poorly holly

Post by Freeranger »

After the snow and arctic winds, our variegated holly tree started to go brown and drop lots of leaves. At first it was on the exposed side, and I thought it would be getting better by now. It's not dropping so many leaves now, but the brown-ness has spread to the other side. There was another shrub similarly affected - a kind of ornamental gorse bush with orange flowers. I thought it was dead, but it's started growing from the centre again and is recovering well. So why is the holly tree getting worse? Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks.
