Thank you for the info. After watching, I think I may have been overwatering. My chaste tree is only about 18 in tall. We get extremely hot (las vegas-hot) so I was watering daily because I read on the net that they prefer moist soil. My soil completely dries by evening when I water in AM. Maybe I'll back off a little. When I have a plant that prefers to dry out between waterings, I will water every other day.
I planted a chaste tree last year and it's one tough plant. I live in NW Arkansas Zone 7 and I think this year I've only watered it twice as it's been getting most of it's water from rain alone.
My three Vitex were planted early summer and did well until almost overnight the leaves became black with a fungus I pruned them back and sprayed with furtilome hopefully they will survive - there are new leaves but compared to a month ago.
quite stunning, a must have
What an excellent video. Great information.

@@GreenGranny Try that and see if it helps. I would love to know if it works!

@@Ricard0_ Thanks for your report! I love to hear that it's drought tolerant for you! The more I learn about these, the more I love them!
