My windmill only has green on the stems of the fronds and the center spear is gone. Based on what I've heard it looks like it's goner. I've protected the center from rain as I thought it promote rot in the center if left wet. I noticed that James760 saying " if it pulls your windmill may be gone but i would still treat it with peroxide. windmills are notorious from coming back from spear pull. " Does that mean that there is hope? Should I pour hydrogen peroxide down the center hole where the spears normally start? If so, how much and what strength? The trunk section is 3' tall. Keeping my fingers crossed.
