Why have my arum lily leaves gone yellow. Planted this April in a sunny place, well watered and lots of rainfall recently.
Also clotted cream jasmine, planted at the same time has grown not massively and has not flowered.Why no flowers even in garden centre the same variety has small cream flowers. Does it need feeding. Should I move it in winter. Will the lily come back?

The jasmine may be concentrating on producing a good root system in its first season. Be patient. Sorry don't know about the arum, except to say that my arum maculatum's leaves die back in the autumn naturally. They do normally prefer a bit of shade so perhaps this is why yours are a bit in advance of those in shaded areas.
