euonymous (spg?)

[mutantpoodle]

I have for many years had a eonymoous varigated (forgive spg) its against a south facing wall and as done well
but
last year and again this year it as siffered from some sort of leaf curling problem at lower araes
it is now almost 'bald' below 3 ft

is this a cureable issue of has the plant had its day and needs replacing?

As depicted so horrifically in The Garden of Earthly Delights, by the great Flemish master Euonymus Bush.
