What is happening to my poor Basjoo?? I noticed the last couple of leaves were getting yellow as well as the oldest ones, but look at the new one coming up, it's ALL yellow! (see pics) Plus 4 pups coming up are the same! Yesterday I gave it 2 Tbsp of Epsom salts plus Miracle Gro 24-8-16 to help it out. I also threw some 12-16-12 slow release around it to help it through the summer so I don't have to be out there with the soluble every week.
Is this ok? I know I may have overdone it with the slow release so quickly after the Miracle Gro, but I panicked...I've heard they're hard to over-fertilize.
