Just an update, my clem is still continuing to yellow. I trully believe it's all the rain we've been having and the area it's planted in tends to get wetter b/c of a gutter drainspout on the garage. Never had this happen before but that's my guess. I did talk to a nursery and they recommended a product by Encap called Fast Acting Iron Plus for Super Green Gardens. I'll work some in tomorrow since we had torrential rains today and the ground is so saturated it's impossible to plant anything much less stir the soil.

On another note, one of my Will Goodwins is wilting. It does this every year without fail but it always comes back. I have two planted on either side of another Jackmanii (which is as green as can be) and they have been very poor growers since I bought them. I'm tempted to end it with them but I don't have the heart to dig them out.

This has been such a challenging year gardenwise. Crazy weather and so much rain has prevented me from putting in all my flowers and this week calls for more rain every other day. Will we ever dry out?

Anyway, here's a pic of yellow clem as he is now.
