I bought these to start some privacy between neighbors but they’re looking sick. I water it weekly, gets about 4 hours of direct light in the am and then indirect. When I bought them in plastic pots I dug a hole as deep as the pot and double in diameter per the nursery’s instructions. Could it be that the plant is in shock or it’s just losing its leaves? Both of my Star jasmines that I bought maybe 3 weeks ago are doing this. Thanks! ![Attachment 1 of 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/ZONzqT7A3tGtq5uMFmZ4oZCuCAmNX9t-H5Kr2YvkATc/4FdWpKhTQ8KeupxOp_x_kw.webp?size=large) ![Attachment 2 of 2](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/ZONzqT7A3tGtq5uMFmZ4oZCuCAmNX9t-H5Kr2YvkATc/ZXBrbK4bTbS-KStS46QZNg.webp?size=large) ## 2 comments ### Amber commented on 2024-06-01 4 hours of sun may not be enough. How hot is it there? I’d water more often than weekly until it is established. Then it would do well longer between watering #### SexyEnchiladas replied on 2024-06-01 Thx! --- _Source: the Planta community (https://getplanta.com). Reading is open to everyone.
