Newly Planted Clethra Ruby Red The Leaves Are Turning Brown And Curling? Should I Trim The Branches Back?

Question

I was watering the bush every second day but now I will check the soil daily. What should I do?

Answer 1

It is likely getting too much water. Cut back the watering to twice a week and water deeply. You don't need to prune unless the stems are dead.
