Browning flowers on fukien
Why are the flowers on my Fukien turning brown?
it's FT allright. I had it for a couple years until this winter they didn't make it through. It flowered for me all year round but the white flowers never lasted more than a couple days. They turn brown, dry up and drop. I find it hard to clean them off the soil surface. Maybe it is best I'm without it now =)
Its not ignorance. I just went through evry page of Paul Lesniewicz', Indoor Bonsai on the topic of how far back to prune flower buds on fukien tea. My copy had nary a word.Justin088 wrote:So clip the stems with the brown flowers? I'm sorry for the ignorance
If I couldn't stir up an example of how its done by search, asking others is what is left to do.
Your inherent; its not broke, I won't fix it, is also a resonable first step to take awaiting a pending answer.
Your next job, will be to take a deep breath, while figuring out where there is enough shade for your fig to take its first step outdoors into...
FWIW figs shed their leaves for lesser reasons than going outdoors.
My TX ebony are sure it must be a tabascoan winter, out doors right now.
I'll let you guys know what happens.
