Upvotes

Hello! This magnolia tree is about 3 years old. I want it to be a single trunk tree but am unsure of how to achieve that. This tree was planted with my grandmothers ashes so I really don’t want to hurt it in anyway. Any help pruning or otherwise would be appreciated!!

Pawpaw start?

I was given some pawpaw seeds last fall. Stored in fridge over winter. Planted this spring. Thought I had misfired so I used the planting medium to propagate rose cuttings. Then this shows up. Has a seed finally germinated? (Ignore the rose stem in the background)

We inherited this boxwood last summer when we moved in the middle of a drought. What can we do to take care of it now? We were hoping it would bounce back this spring but we've only had limited luck. We live in zone 6.

Tulip Magnolia damage

So I have this Tulip Magnolia that is very special to me, we had to cut down all the other mature trees that were towering over it several years back so it is slowly filling back in. We recently had some demolition done and the backhoe did some damage. One limb was snapped and further down there's a big gash. Any advice?

What is happening to my emerald green arborvitae?

Post image
2 Upvotes

For the past week, one of our five 15 year old arborvitae has been dropping green branches from the top. These trees are about 18 feet high. We live in Syracuse, NY. Any experts care to hazard a guess? There doesn’t seem to be an air circulation problem and the other 4 trees have no signs of issues. I took this photo using a zoom; the area you are looking at is about 15 feet high, near the top.

Can I trim this down considerably?

I have this large bush (tree?) in front of my house. I love the privacy it gives, but it is beginning to infringe on my driveway. Can I cut it back considerably? If I did the green ends would be gone. Would the brown area turn green as it’s exposed to sunlight?
