How do I save my avocado tree?
Comments (1)you might want to ask in the tropical fruits forum. last summer i had an avocado seed grow in my compost pile, i dug it out, it had a very long tap root. i planted it somewhere else, and it died after a few days. must have damaged the tap root, or they dont like being moved around when still young....See MoreIs this seedling an avocado (Qatar)
Comments (6)Dear Dave thanks a lot for your reply and excellent information as these Avocadoes are grown on the ground directly and they survived among tomato bush I recognised these avocadoes by strange looking giant leaves while cutting some of the tomato leaves, I almost forgot after planting these Avocadoes pits. I will try to follow these Principles suggested by some avocado experts growing Avocado in ground who are successful by lots of trial and error methods, so I need not reinvent the wheel and these steps will help to keep them short. * Cut side branches out that are more than a third of the diameter of the central leader. * Remove all growth with an acute angle.* Tip all shoots after 20-cm growth * Space horizontal shoots evenly in a spiral on the centra leader to avoid over shading by growing directly above one another. Thanks Happy growing...See MoreHow to save my Aloe Vera plants Qatar
Comments (35)I would worry about them dying too, but look at the dates of the posts: first one is June 16th, so photo was taken no later than that date. Second post is today-August 4th. So I am thinking that if they didn't die in about 6 weeks or longer, and had been sitting in same location they must be acclimitized well...of course that is just the way I think :) and could be very wrong! And greening of the plants on left suggest to me that even little bit of shade and little more water (drops from window AC units) makes quite a difference...See MoreIs it dying?

Comments (6)Silver or Freeman-hard to tell which, and of course, they are close relatives. The graft failure is an intriguing idea. I've seen such, but in the more well-known case of certain white ash cultivars. In any case, this plant could be cut back to live stems if one is patient. I could do it in just a few minutes. YMMV. The reason this is not so crazy an idea is that this tree will be very fast-growing. Even the little remnant, should you prune as suggested, will quickly shoot up and become a tree again. Why the die-back? Who knows? Sometimes it just happens, and of course, there is a cause, but we don't always know what it is....See Moremaufie123
