poor bottlebrush

lucy morgan asked 14 years ago

I moved a bottle washer plant as it was crushed among larger trees in my garden,the sun wasnt getting at it so it turned very brown and withered lots,slowly the tops of the leaves are looking healthy again and ive noticed some new shoots at the very base…do you think i should cut it back down to the base or would that be too much or leave it alone,im feeding it with miracle grow.

Bottlebruch does not like to be moved and often dies. You can cut back pieces of branch that are dead. Do not feed, it does not like too much feeding, but watch for drought.
