no new growth on String Of Hearts
Quick answer
If your String Of Hearts has no new growth, the most likely cause is: String of Hearts often stops growing at the vine tips (apical meristems) due to tip desiccation during dry spells or normal resource reallocation to hidden nodes near the rootball or leaf axils.
Start here:
- 1. Inspect the entire length of the vine and the rootball for emerging nodes or buds.
- 2. Prune desiccated tips to stimulate adventitious growth from lower nodes.
