Question
So when I cat the trunk, do I have to put something black glue or covering on top of it? Will it came back again those leaves?
Thanks Amy

Hi Amy,
Thanx for your question.  I'm not sure what you're asking.  You are asking if you cut the trunk of the tree, would you have to apply a black glue or something on top of it?  My question is, was the plant injured somehow and you are trying to care for it?  Did a piece of the plant get knocked off or torn off?  If that's the case, make a clean cut with a clean knife and allow the area to heal on it's own.  Hopefully, new shoots will develop from the sides as they usually do on an older plant.  I hope this helps.
