Umbrella Plant Idead but Roots Look Good Can I Putcit in Wster Written By Stapylton Heen1993 Wednesday, 16 February 2022 Add Comment Edit Hi this is Jeanna I have a nine foot fiscus tree I have had for three years indoors. I have taken intendance of it has lost may 10 -20 leaves hither and at that place from moving to different spots. but they have grown dorsum and this twelvemonth information technology has grown new branches, and as well new leaves. I did have it out side the previous year on my back deck where it thrived and grew and blossomed more leaves. I brought it in for winter it stressed for a calendar month dropped leaves then was fine I put it back on the deck when it warmed up and had to repot it in a larger part due to dirt loss and over root growth. and I repotted it added a little food/ fertilizer just as the local petite garden center suggested and then it went and rained for iii days torrential rains. and at present the pot is over watered and now the leaves are white and falling off. and its raining again. So I coved the pot area from getting anymore rain with a garbage bag and duck tape so information technology wont seep in the pot. But I take noticed it is in shock, the branches somewhat went white, but when I scratched the torso it was green underneath, and so she is alive. I need to get her back to wellness. Non sure if going dorsum out side and getting repotted and then rain all at once was too much for her? is there anything I can do for her and destress her, or movement her to the garage till the rain stops this month ? Please help me save my Fiscus Jeanna wcutler Esteemed Contributor Forums Moderator VCBF Scarlet Scout 10 Years Ficus, a fig tree? In that location are so many dissimilar types of these, some of which exercise non similar beingness moved at all. I'm not sure being moved to a nighttime garage, yet another move, is going to be what this institute wants. What about giving up on the outdoors this twelvemonth and moving it back inside where information technology had been? Information technology would be helpful to postal service photos then we know exactly what yous are talking about. Attach photos and files My Photograph Shows Fiscus tree now. and one moving picture from terminal year on deck. Attached Files: vitog Ascension Contributor 10 Years Does the pot accept drainage holes in the bottom? If not, the soil will be waterlogged, and the roots will be dead or dying. If that is the case, information technology should be repotted immediately in an appropriate pot with slightly moist, well-draining soil. Any roots that look completely expressionless should be clipped off. If the soil drains poorly, it could be waterlogged even if the pot has drainage holes. Margot Generous Correspondent 10 Years Oh dear, your ficus does not wait skilful. Before taking whatsoever heroic measures to relieve it, you should scratch the bark with your fingernail or a pocketknife to detect out if the cambium layer, only under the bark, is withal green or not. Start with outermost branches and work back toward the torso and and then the base of the tree. If you discover green nether the bark at whatsoever bespeak, that is skillful news and you should continue as vitog recommends. If, however, the cambium layer is dark-brown, especially if it is brown near the base of the tree, it is probably dead. Good luck! I reported it into the big pot it has two big drainage holes on the lesser. The trunk is green under neath and shocking every bit it is she is actually growing some new leaves. Maybe if I just leave her solitary and go along her covered if information technology starts to rain over again. She will pull out of it. That pot is three times bigger than the original one she was in. I do admit I did not check all her roots to see if thier waa expressionless ones . I took her out the one-time pots waahed off alot of dirt stuck to her so she could ballast to the new good dirt. I live in Cleveland Ohio, and it's may and nosotros are starting this month with lots of rain everyday near and a few days she waa out thier through a astringent thunder storm were it rained for two days straight. It dry out today 05/19/20 and tomorrow supose to be seventy and Thursday 70 so I hope that will dry some of her dirt upwardly and she can drop the residual of the ols leaves. I exercise come across some new dark-green leaves coming in . Should I do annihilation else and what kind of food do you feed a ficus . I have been using indor plant nutrient . Or sticks in the grown and sometimes I use miracle grow liquid.?? Thanks Fastened Files: Margot Generous Contributor 10 Years It sounds similar your Ficus benjamina has a will to live and so that's smashing. Go on in mind that in most areas of Northward America, these are houseplants and finicky ones at that. Information technology can exist grown outdoors year round only in USDA growing zones 10B and 11 which Cleveland is definitely not. Having said that, your fig could become outside for the warmer summer months although y'all should be prepared for pregnant leaf loss as it adjusts to a new environment and so when yous bring it in over again. Read over a couple of websites that tell nigh care of these fig trees such as: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/ficus/weeping-fig-copse-outside.htm Concord off on fertilizer until your plant is revived and stabilized . . . it'southward never a good thought to feed an ailing institute. Hi Jeanna. I like that y'all're thinking of fixing the overwatering problem, simply trapping that excess moisture in a waterproof sack but makes it worse. It can non dry at all, and the more than-stagnant condition inside a bag leads to faster rotting & root death. So you need to get the roots dried out. Beginning, the pot, does it have drainage holes and well-draining soil? Is there a saucer you could remove so the h2o drains out the bottom? What are your dark minimum temps similar right now. If you take dice-off due to overwatatering, then cold nights can brand information technology worse. So if it was mine, and a 9' plant would be very valuable to me, I would get rid of the purse, get information technology skillful drainage (even if that meant propping information technology up and drilling holes from the lesser), use the big umbrella to reduce rainwater instead of the pocketbook, and maaaybe even get a manus truck to cart it back indoors every night for awhile. It's time for some very drastic measures to save this one. Thank You and so much Margot & Tom for all your advise. I will become a large umbrella for her. and drill more holes for drainage, it has 2 holes only not big enough. At night information technology has gotten as low as 55 right now. 24-hour interval temp around 70-eighty. and so when it gets colder towards winter, I volition have to bring her back in.
