Question
i was giving a plam tree plant, in the move to my house, we had the plant in the back of the truck, about 10 of the leaf are all spilt up from the wind, should i cut them down or just leave them. Can you tell me how to take care of the beautiful plant?

Answer
Brenda,

For starters next time you move a plant in an open pick  up truck you have to wrap it with a sheet or paper so it doesn't get torn up. The leaves will not heal or regrow unless you cut it off. It will take some time for the plant to regrow. If you can e-mail me a picture of the plant I can better advise you whether all the damaged leaves need to be cut off or just the worst ones. You can send it to [email protected]   Regular fertilizer after you prune it will help it regrow faster. Good luck.
