After the devastatingly cold winter freeze we had, both Michelle and James’ trees appeared to have been wiped out.
Recently, though, Michelle’s tree has been showing a strong surge of new growth.
I’ve tried pruning some of the old, dead branches off and am really unsure if I should finish cleaning up the top area. These particular trees is a ficus nitida (Indian Laurel Fig) and apparently, all I can do it wait for spring (it’s here, yeah!) and see which branches can spring forth new growth.
James’ tree, on the other hand, is only showing a few leaves forming on the main trunk. Maybe, just maybe, some of those can turn into new branches.
