Question from
carly densley
i bought this tree as a memorial to my baby daughter who died in march, it has been thriving since we bought it and has bought us much joy. however i have noticed that it has begun to look a bit sorry for itself, unless its been raining i water it every night and tonight i notice that the some of the leaves and branches look singed and have crisped up. is it advisable to remove these leaves or maybe prune some of the poorer branches? i really would appreciate any advice anyone can give. many thanks in advance!
