Platycodon Balloon Flower Leaves Are Dry And Brittle

Question From: North Charleston, South Carolina, United States
Q: My platycodon is not blooming and the leaves are dry and brittle. Should I cut back or transplant to a different location? One is in a deck box and the other is in a hanging. Are they receiving to much sun? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

A: Lack of water is probably the issue. Transplant them into the garden and they will probably do better. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
