Im a little suck with this one so any help would be useful.


Snip

Should be able to make a short term screen using something like Bamboo
screen mats which they sell rolls of various heights, it won't last
forever
but doesn't look too bad!


Im not sure I could unroll a mat inside the tree and Im reluctant to remove
any more branches- although I may be able to fix strips up. Im pretty sure
this side of the tree will recover so it only needs to last a season or 2.

Your Philadelphus should recover but it must have been just coming into
flower so I can imagine it took more than the one bottle to calm down :~)


I wasnt too impressed to say the least. It had just about started to drop
flowers all the wet weather lately hasnt been too good for it. Would it be
best to leave it well alone to recover or try and move it or take a
cutting - Id rather not come home from work to find it reduced to a 3 foot
twig.
