| Hi,
Here is my question.
The problem is : the soil had some worms (later I found out they are centipedes). fine ........
Now that it is over a week, the leaves have started to wilt, and the flowers look drying up.
I did try to clean the crowded roots and give some air circulation. Do I need to water it daily, till it gets back ??? . Do I have to fertilize ???
Thanks in Advance. |

| Brooms are sensitive to root disturbance. Keep it moist, see if it sends out new leaves later. |

| so, i had to remove the plant two times after i planted it, to check the root system. the roots look healthy and no damage. I also dead headed the bloomed flowers. "Having" to check on roots and "deadheading" fls for whatever reason is the problem here. Neither is necessary. Hopefully it will recover if left undisturbed and kept sufficiently moist but not soaking. And the container is sufficiently large. Dan |
