Yellow leaves on cape plumbago.

Question

My new cape plumbago was just planted two weeks ago and some of the leaves are turning yellow. I have been watering it an extra once a day (do to a heat wave) and it is on a nightly drip line. Am I giving it too much water? Or is it perhaps adjusting to being planted? It’s blooming like crazy since it was planted but it’s just the leaves I’m concerned about.

Answer 1

This probably is a combination of overwatering and transplant shock. The drip irrigation is probably sufficient. This article may help
