# Any advice appreciated My Sudachi has been struggling since It was…

_Posted by Itchy on 2026-10-15_

Any advice appreciated  
My Sudachi has been struggling since It was planted into the ground, top branches has dropped nearly all its leaves. Black sunken spots on most leaves but lower newer growth is spot free and has solid deep colour to its leaves.  
The same time I planted a bergamont which is doing well and a yuzu which is thriving with lots of new growth.

Just wondering if I have done something wrong or if I've missed something key or it's just a sooky plant haha  
It gets watered twice a week or when the soil drys out, I always check before watering.
