RE: A Fun and Rewarding Summer Experience: Transplanting Tropical Breadfruit Trees

in Homesteading • 2 months ago

Transplanting a plant that is already grown can be a 50-50 proposition. It might die or continue to live. Good thing yours survived. Update us if it has already borne fruit. 🥰

Yes. Everyone said it would die. I think removing branches and leaves helps with survival. Fewer leaves cause the tree to evaporate less water. Making it easier for the tree to survive on reduced water intake from a smaller root system.
