Have a 3 ft Tr. Fortunensis outdoors. Are we supposed to trim the tree by
lopping off bottom branches?
There are still living branches at the base of the runk, but others we
have
seen seem to be pruned part way up the trunk. Any suggestions? Ernie
Hi,
If it is green leave it. If it is brown cut it. If it is yellow wait till it
turns brown. Ideally only one frond will be yellowing, if more are yellow
then this indicates a need for fertilizer with minor elements. This is so
for all palms not just Trachycarpus fortunei.
hth, how
to reply remember no NEWS is good
