mexican heather is not getting new growth.

Question

Mexican heather stayed green all winter but got no new growth and is very leggy with many dead stalks.

Answer 1

This could be a few different issues. Without photos, I will have to take a few guesses.

It could be that it received too much water over the winter. In this case, an infection could take over. A fungicide will be appropriate in this instance.

It could be a soil fertility issue, as well. Has this been fertilized, or at least planted in fertile soil amended with compost? If not, you may need to fertilize.
