| Have you planted it too deep perhaps? The soil level must be exactly the same as it was in the pot. If it's fairly new, you could take the chance and raise it. Was the hole wide enough? If it's clay, you need to dig a fairly big hole and put plenty of compost in it to allow the roots to take hold and spread. Don't feed it anymore, you don't feed sick plants. Give it some Seasol on a regular basis, keep it well watered and cross your fingers. And wait. We had a similar problem with 2 lime trees, replacements for one which lasted over 20 years, which looked after itself. They're still slow but at least are looking better and starting to flower. Don't give up unless they really die. You'll be surprised at how they can recover and send out new shoots, probably in spring. |
