Another strangler fig ?? Fawnridge? Help!
16 years ago
Thanks for your imput on killing the strangler fig. I have a few more questions about it, as you can see on the last 2 pictures on the link below, it has wrapped around the trunk alot. Do I remove all of the dead cut fronds and get all the roots out or will that damage the palm more? Would it be okay to take a sharp razor blade or knife and slip it behind the main trunk of the fig, and pry it off or just leave it be? Should I hammer nails into the trunk at the top where I am cutting off the leaf part of the fig? Will marine base varnish be ok for the oil base paint or does it need pigment in it? And lastly how do I get rid of that mold on the trunk of the palm? Can this palm be saved or is it too damaged? Don't mean to sound like a dunce, but there is nothing on the web about it and I don't want to cause more harm than good. Thanks so much for your help
