I would recommend a soil test (call you area extension office) and that would tell you what elements are lacking so you could fine tune the fertilizer next year. There are many things that could cause a Pieries japonic to look sad but they generally have a hard time with the winter but will recover. Send more information and your USDA zone and perhaps I can help. Karen Stephanie,

Is Ironite or Hollytone appropriate? How about Miracle Gro? I am also concerned about my Pieris Japonicas which don't look too great right now......... Many thanks! Stephanie Carol,

No amount of water makes up for the stress that endless days of over 90 degree weather can cause. Most shrubs and trees need at least 1" of water/wee so give them a deep soaking if there is no rain. Clipping away the dead material makes them look better but be careful you are not clipping off the buds of next year's flowers.

I have trimmed the brown stems and leaves away from the bush but it continues to turn brown. Do you have any suggestions to keep the David Viburnum from turning brown and looking so bad.
