My SOTM is looking brownish in places. Is this normal this time of year in Indiana??? What is wrong if not?
Snow On The Mountain
Two things can cause this. One is a build up of salts in the soil, or too much water. The excess moisture can lead to a fungus that turns the leaves brown. SOTM likes well drained soil that is on the dry side. Whatever the cause, your best best is to mow the plant down and let it push out new growth. It will fill in again very quickly.
ok, thank you! It's a lot! It's been there a while! But i will try it! Thanks!!
