Yellow leaves on ceanothus

Question

My ceanothus leaves have turned yellow and are falling from the plant. It is in a large pot. Do you think it is from over watering? How can I save the plant?

Answer 1

Yellowing leaves generally indicate a watering issue, to much or to little.
Container plants need daily water and even twice daily if the temperatures are above 85 degrees.

Check the water and if the top inch or so is dry, water.
Soil should be damp and not soggy.
Make sure the pot is well draining.
