Privet leaf colour advice

Post by Mupp-dawg »

Hey guys

I have this privet and this time of the year it usually goes nuts with green! But this year
they have gone purple!! I had reported used some Seasol recently. Was this a bad move??
because the leafs have gone Dark and purple.

Anyone know what’s happened?

It’s from the cold. The new growth will be green when the weather warms up.
