Help Needed for this Brug Please????

17 years ago

Something happened to the tips of this NOID white Brug. I thought a rabbit might have nibbled them all off but I am not sure. It has not grown from the tips since then. What will happen to the growth of it? Will it have to make a whole new branch in order to get taller?

Thanks for any light you can shed on this!

Sorry for the double post. It didn't show up for 15 minutes so I thought I must have dreamed that I posted. After posting the second time I see two posts. Then about 5 minutes later there are no posts! Hello????? AOL did error out and shut me down due to low memory. Anyway, I hope you can help!
Thanks!

Joyce from what I can see is that it looks more like it is dying down from the top. Did not have that happen before and hope someone will be able to help

Brugs dying from the top down is the problem that first brought me to this forum. So I'll share with you the advice I received...

Sterilize your tools first, but then cut off the damaged parts down to good healthy growth.

Then dust the cuts with a fungicide powder (rooting hormone will work in a pinch).

Then it was suggested I treat the plants with a systemic fertilizer. I use the Bayer product and give them a good soaking with it.

I'm not sure which of the three suggestions cured the problem, so I just do all three.

Hope that helps some!
