Trying to fix a chinense with a plaster

Good morning!

We have had a couple of days with really strong winds. It's been a thriller to see how the plants almost lie horizontally in the wind. I expected more "victims" than the two broken plants, that I ended up with.

Yesterday we tried to fix the broken chinense with a plaster. A technique that worked last year. But since the winds continued all through the day, I guess it never got a chance to heal. So this is how it looked this morning.

As you see, not a major problem. It's more a technique for fixing broken plants, that I wanted to share with you. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

Today is a new beautiful day :-) So - I'm wishing you all great Sunday.

Regards,
  Mats

  1. Oh, stackars den plantan! Kul tips, brukar ibland plåstra ihop mina telningar med, men oftast tar jag sticklingar i stället om olyckan är framme, eller planterar den djupare, om det går så den bildar rötter längre upp! Ha en skön och lite mindre blåsig söndag! :) Mia

  2. Hej Mia! Tack för tipset! Nu verkar det ju ha lugnat ner sig, men jag kan tänka mig att plantorna har träningsvärk i rötterna efter konditionspasset fredag och lördag :-) Ha det gott!

  3. Du kan ju försöka att kombinera plåstrandet med att plantera ner den i en extra djup kruka med - kan ju aldrig skada! Hoppas den tar sig!! Ha det gott du med! :) Mia
