Hi Friends,
Looking for some help with an eastern hemlock 'Jervis' that is suffering from tip dieback. I received it from a friend back in August and repotted it out of necessity in a conifer bonsai mix pH 5.5. It seemed to be doing well but the tips have been dying back over the past 2 to 3 weeks. New to hemlock cultivation and I can't find anything on the web related to small culture (it's all about landscape scale hemlock issues, which as a forest ecologist in New England, I am quite familiar with that subject (adelgids, loopers, etc.).
Ideas appreciated. I know that I did something wrong. I did not muck around with the roots too much, just got rid of the encircling roots.
Thanks!
