I wonder if anyone has come across this or any advice. One of my customers has what I think is a Japanese spindle.it has been doing very well but since my last visit 2 weeks ago half of it appears to have died (see photos) some of the bottom of the plant is still ok and the back near a wall is still green. Any ideas or advice would be appreciated as never seen this before.

Sorry it's a long post!Hi all going on from my what mulching mower thread, I'd thought I'd start a new one on what I have just bought. The sthil comes with an optional mulch kit that includes a multi purpose blade. At first I wanted a mower I could just flip a lever between collection and mulch, this narrowed my choice down to the toro recycler and honda hrx or a izy versamow. All three come with canvas bags, something I was hoping to avoid as the mower will be used, I'm sure for wet…

Im wondering if there is a massive bit of tree decomposing undet the ground and there is some sort of fungal infestation???
