I had a pot bound acacia tree in the garden inherited from my land-lord, his OH just loved to shove everything in pots!!
It was on its last legs, 2 of the shoots had died & some of the branches had aswell, so i decided to plant it out. Then things just got worse, what few leaves it had died off & the main trunk of the tree started to die. It stands about 5 foot high & ild guess that the top 2-3 foot has died :-[ Should i cut down the dead wood & if so how far away from the healthy part of the tree should i cut?
There are plenty of healthy leaves around the base of the tree, looks like its gonna turn into a bush.
