Laurels dying

[Cleverfairy2013]

Hi
I have laurels planted about 6 years ago and last year i noticed a lot of leaves yellowing and dropping, I’ve just had a look at them and there are barely any leaves left.
I will attach some photos, grateful for any advice
Thank you

If those pictures are accurate as to color, these plants need to be fertilized. Nutrient-deficient plants are succeptible plants and are inviting fungal and other attacks. The third picture shows classic leaf spot fungus. The yellow leaves show nitrogen deficiency.

I would use a copper based fungicide.

I would use a copper based fungicide.

But the first thing you must do is strengthen the plant or all of the fungicides in the universe will be useless. Use a good balanced NPK fertilizer.
