My Husband pruned my fig tree wrong. How can i save it?
Comments (11)th102 now is not the ideal time to prune your tree. Having said that. It will still leaf out and produce fruit if you prune it now. The longer you wait the more sap will be flowing thought the tree and the tree will lose more of its energy due to losing more sap. Keep in mind that pruning while the tree is no longer dormant will be a shock to the tree. Thus it will likely appear to stop the active growing process for 1-3 weeks. Your fruiting and ripening cycle this season will also likely be delayed/slowed by roughly the same amount of time....See MoreCan these Plumeria cuttings be saved?! (pics)
Comments (3)Thank you. I actually also have a heated blanket on low surrounding them that I forgot to mention (you can kind of see it in the picture), but I've only had it under the pots since after I found the rot and did a little research online. It hasn't been there for long and I haven't seen any effects from it yet. I tried poking the withered looking cutting with a pin and it oozed a white milky liquid - is that the latex you mentioned? If that shows up, it means the cutting is save-able? Thanks for replies, I'm fairly new to this and I realize its a little off season for plumeria questions. I was successful 2 years ago in getting my first cutting started but these mail order ones have been much tougher than the one I brought back from my honeymoon in Hawaii :) Misty...See MoreHow close together should I inground plant my Plumeria?
Comments (13)I would wait until spring to plant anything. You can plant them pretty close together as long as it's not permanent, which I wouldnt suggest in zone 9. In the fall, when they go dormant, you can dig them up and bareroot them inside to protect from freeze or cold damage. Then plant them up again in the spring.
