Hi All,

I have a Callistemon that is currently about 4 feet high. All the foliage is at the top, but the bottom 6 inches is the interesting bit. If I chop it right down to no foliage will it manage?

Thanks,

Andrew

Will it manage to what? Live? Yes, they will re-shoot even if cut off at ground level. Make sure that it is healthy first before cutting.

Thanks Hack,

Just remembered I'd posted a pic of it before here:

You can see what I mean by sparse foliage, but the foliage up there is healthy. I'll give it a chop and see what happens.

Cheers,

Andrew

CHOP CHOP CHOP... then stand back, Callistemon shoot like crazy !
