Why are my plants going red?
Several of the plants in my garden have gone red and don't look very well. The lower parts of the mint have gone dark red and it's pretty much stopped growing. The eucalyptus tree has a lot of red leaves that then drop off - the whole tree seems to be falling over now too. A few herb seedlings went red for a bit but seem to have got better. My chilli plants have gone yellow as have a few other plants. Other plants seem fine. I don't think it's dryness. Is this a plant virus (or over/under feeding) and what can I do?

Woofgang, you could be right on the hardening for the mint - it was green (and growing fast) inside, then went red (and stopped growing) when moved out (although it was May when moved so thought would be ok). Signs of new, green growth now. Eucalyptus getting a good soaking now so hope that will help it. Yes, it's tall and (was!) well-established.
