I have 3 butterfly bushes..One did the same a month ago in July and it was
HOT and humid.. not too much water...in the soil to cause it
It dropped its leaves they turned brown and fell off...

I cut it back to 15 inches and it is now putting on tiny green leaves on that
bush Miss Ruby

Miss Molly is turning yellow and leaves brown and dropping leaves and I know
it is not too dry or over watered...it has afternoon shade but half day sun
and enough moisture..the Miss molly beside it is green and doing good
green and not dropping leaves and not yellowing..

It has been 104 heat index here for a few weeks...
temp in the 96 -99 range...but they get shaded in afternoon ...not in the burning
sun all day

the healthy Miss molly is shown here in a photo and it is 3 foot from the one that
is suffering and dropping leaves ...entire bush...

Do you know what I can do and what is causing this to happen..
