Questions & Answers

Have a Question?

Ask a Question
  • My plant was recently planted outdoors in direct sun. Some of the leaves are drying out turning brown. On the underside the leaves are very tiny and new but quite condensed. How shall I treat these issues.

    Your Firepower Nandina is likely experiencing transplant shock and stress from direct sun. Here's how to address these issues:

    1. Watering:
      Ensure consistent watering, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. Deep water once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions.

    2. Sun Protection:
      While Firepower Nandina tolerates full sun, newly planted shrubs may need temporary shade during the hottest part of the day until they establish. Use a shade cloth if needed.

    3. Pruning:
      Trim off the dried, brown leaves to redirect the plant’s energy to healthy growth.

    4. Mulching:
      Add 2-3 inches of mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature. Keep mulch away from the plant’s stem.

    5. Patience:
      The dense, new leaves on the underside indicate healthy regrowth. Allow the plant time to adjust to its new environment.

    Monitor regularly, and it should recover with proper care.
