How to revive struggling Chinese Star Jasmine?

So I’ve had some Chinese Star Jasmine in my backyard for approaching 3 years now. This was all planted at the same time and all purchased from the same Bunnings. The left side has flourished while the right side has continually struggled.

 

The sun travels towards the camera in this shot. In summer it goes almost directly straight overhead. In winter it’s angled to the left. This means the right side almost consistently gets sun for at least the first half of the day while the left side doesn’t get as much.

 

I’ve attached a screenshot of my feeding and pruning schedule. Liquid is Black Marvel and slow release is Osmocote All Purpose. Last year I also installed a soaker hose under the soil to try and give it access to more water incase the mulch was soaking it all up.

 

My only thought process is that because the right side cops much more sun I’m STILL not watering it as much as I should be?

 

Any suggestions on how to help it catch up to the left would be appreciated.
