Doing The Splits.
8 years ago
After torturing my DR with Neem Oil, Malathion (a potent insecticide) to combat Scale and a dose of common 20-20-20 garden fertilizer, it has decided to produce incomplete or split flowers. Still pretty but not what was intended. New leaves are mottled green as well.
I thought I was helping the plant. Thankfully the Scale situation has been eradicated. Growing DR is a constant learning process in what the plants will or will not tolerate. Use your chemicals wisely or there will be consequences.
