Q.What Is Wrong With My Honeysuckle?
We have a honeysuckle plant about 5 or more years old, growing along the back of our house. It has bloomed very well indeed this year, masses of blooms still and lots of buds but suddenly the leaves have started turning yellow brown and mottled. It is in well drained soil and gets watered well at the root once a week and it has been dry and cool here lately? I have researched diseases but the leaves don’t match either powdery mildew or sooty mould I don’t think. Be glad of any advice!

It could be a fungal disease prompted by the cooler weather.
