Hi

I am completely new to gardening - only recently own my garden but have not had the time/money until recently to begin looking after it properly outside of cutting the grass occasionally and a little bit of weeding. It is a new build which came with a row of Portuguese Laurels which have recently started to look a bit yellowish and I can see holes/bites in a lot of the leaves. The plant right in the hedge corner looks much healthier then all the others and I can see my neighbors with the same plants look a lot healthier and fuller too so I am worried there may be something wrong with them. If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated thank you.

My advice to you is leave them alone. They are lovely little plants, and are showing some very healthy looking new growth. They will fill out and get bigger, and I don't think it's very long since they were planted. Wait until summer comes (hopefully) they will romp away. Welcome to the forums (y)
