Default Re: Damage to Raja Puri

If it"s just a bend, I'd try to prop it up with a stake. However, if it's really broken, just cut it off. I had a nice Zebrina, that I managed to keep growing, under lights, over the winter. It did, however, have several dead lower leaves on it. I brought it outside, and trimmed the dead stuff off of it, and swung it around, on the table, hit a tree branch, and broke the newest leaf off. Then I had to put it down, in a shady spot, (to acclimate it) and I had to reach over some other plants, so I dropped the pot for the last six inches, and when I did, the stem broke right off. I'm sure it'll grow back, and there is a pup, but...things happen. LOts o luk!
