Sorry to hear but a good thing with them is - they do germinate quite easily and don't need stratification, try again.....

Probably won't but appreciate the encouragement

Are they definitely gone? Some still look quite green in the picture.

Not yet

They are still ok, do not water, let them dry a bit and plenty of light, they should survive....

It's been down pouring the last two days, so it's been a struggle keeping them dry

This is this is were I make sure I have a really well draining medium, although it still may not help much during constant rain!

When mine were same size as yours, i had them outside covered with clear plastic 60L storage box for a good while before there was warm enought to take it off. If you do that, keep them out of full sun, its easy to cook them there.

Noted. I feel bad for my other trees, though. They’re stuck in organic soil and have been getting more rain than they would like. Been doing my best to keep them out but I’m limited on what I can do. My tropicals seem very enthusiastic about it, though lol.

Dont warry, i had trees in regular compost soil for years and they were ok, i guess growth could be better, but none of them died just because they were in garden soil

Awwww, maybe next time huh?. Hope the BRT is recovering well from the pest attack.

It’s slowly recovering. It stopped putting out new growth unfortunately

I repotted my BRT because the nursery owners think the soil was bad. It’s reacting fine to the repot so far

I really love the trunk/branch formation on that tree, he so pretty.

Thank you! I love how I leaned it over to get its shape! It was first real repotting so it was exciting. None of the roots were rotten fortunately. Just need to figure out what’s going on with it
