Kent, United Kingdom

We have two identical large, fast growing ceanothus plants, both of which were fiercely pruned last winter. Both grew plenty of new leaves and started to flower, but now one is thriving but the other seems to be dying - leaves are turning rusty brown and curling up; the bottom of the trunk is also turning reddy brown. Any ideas for how to save it?
