All my llelandi died they all turned brown, showed them to a gardening expert at the local garden centre and he said they have drowned, so did a bit of investigating and heard a water leak so called the water board and they found 5 water leaks in some terrace houses back yards near to where I live, so my house being a bit lower down the water ran in to my front garden and that is why they drowned, so now replaced them with laruel bushes
