Why is my hall's honeysuckle dying?

hi help!


live in london on. bought plant a month ago and repotted to a nice big pot. grew about a foot and started to bloom but now about half the leaves are turning a mottled yellow and it's stopped flowering. seems more of a 'disease' than mistreatment. it's in full sun, i water it right and have added a slow release fertilizer. any help appreciated! thanks!

Why is my hall's honeysuckle dying?
I have a honeysuckle plant and it is doing wonderful. It is in a shady part of my garden growing up the arbor lattice.





It had been tranplanted from a camp in the woods. It was thriving in a wooded area.





I believe they love to be shaded.
Reply:could be in a draft they don't like that so maybe you should try moving it.
Reply:Honeysuckle goes dormant in the cold. It doesn't die but all the leaves fall off and it looks dead. Is it in a nice warm, even hot area?
Reply:Did you add the fertilzer before or after the leaves started turning and it stopped flowering? Maybe you over-fertilized it. Or maybe the wrong fertilizer?
