Mine are looking a bit sick, I think it's because I left them in a really sunny position without enough water over a few hot days.

Are you sure they're totally dead, or is it just the leaves gone brown/dropped off? I'm going to give mine a good soaking by standing them in a tray full of water, and leave them in a more shaded place for a few days.

I've been watering them in this dry spell but not too much, the leaves haven't fallen off,but looking very sick and brownish.

Yeah, that sounds like mine.

I assumed they'd dried out a little bit and maybe got slightly scorched, as they are really small. My bigger lavender plants I grew from plugs about 2 years ago are still fine, but they're bigger and tougher.

It makes me feel better that it's not just me,but that doesn't help the plants,:huh:

Mine have too, I just came on here to ask advice. I don't think any of them have grown at all!

Mine are alive but not growing, Nicotiana, growing and flowers, but not the most attractive of things I must say....

Hopefully someone will come along and tell us what were doing wrong, or may be we should contact suttons on mass Monday all at same time.

I think ringing them en masse is a great idea. Count me in. Anyone else up for this? Might be a faulty batch/user error.

Telephone using saynoto0870 is 01803 696321.
