Have my Ceanothus in pots died?

[mayneverhappen]

Hi new to gardening last year so hope you can help? I have 5 Ceanothus skylark that I bought last year. I repotted them into larger pots and they flowered. About six weeks ago they started yellowing and beginning of flowering looked grey and dry. Now very sparse leaves and no flowers.
I have just read they not good in pots. Is it too late to plant in the ground or do you think I should give it a try as they might come back? I am so sad was really looking forward to the beautiful blue flowers😢

I'm sorry but it probably has.
Ours are planted out in the garden and are now taller than me and a mass of blue flowers ,covered in bees humming happily.

There's always hope - plant into ground quick! Ceanothus are lovely. Can you post a pic of what they're looking like at the moment?

Here's a pic.

Thank you... will give it a go

That one? That's got life in it for sure! It looks very dry though - give a humungous water, dig a nice hole, loosen the earth, maybe chuck in some nice compost, don't plant it dry whatever you do. Keep it really well watered and that's gonna spring to life I'm sure!

I love your positivity thank you. Yes the 5 of them look like this. Fingers crossed

I hope I'm right! From your description I'd envisaged something about five inches high with two solitary yellow leaves on!

If you feel like it post a pic when they flourish (I'm very convinced they will).

Last year they were so full and green compared to this pitiful show! I will def post a pic to show how they go. Thanks again

On 11th May we had severe frost - some of my trees, planted in the ground, look a bit like your ceanothus. Could they have been frosted and are now recovering?
