    Does anyone know why my surfinia leaves and stems which were lovely from end of May until mid July started to turn yellow and break off. They were fed and watered well

    [​IMG] Hi jojo, Welcome .
    Surfinias are an annual plant & have a tendancy to do that. After the flowers have died off I dead head them all & around July I find they benefit fron a little bit of a trim up, then they usually give you a second flush of lovely flowers... Hope that answers your question, but if not please say... [​IMG]
