My boyfriend just recently bought me a 30 year old yucca tree. But our house gets absolutely no light. The leaves are turning yellow, and I cant put it outside yet cause its way to cold hear on Long Island. I was hoping that it might servive the winter inside and once spring & summer comes i could put it outside where it will hopefully thrive. Will that work or is it hopeless? Thank You

I have a I think what is called a cornwellian cherry tree. It is an ornamental cherry, fruit does not taste well. It was planted about 5 years ago and it has made a steady decline over the past two years with leafing out less and less. I think it may be diseased , but I dont know about the different diseases or what caused it or how to treat it. The leaves look like they have some tiny black spots on them and their are small slit holes on them as well. I was wanting to have anybody tell me what I need to do to treat it.

Also do you think it would be a good idea to crop the top of the branches on it, to give it renewed vigor before spring starts?

Thanks for any help

I have a beautiful Banzai that is struggling because the soil is infertile...I purchased it in China (and still live in China) and can't buy fertalizer or new soil accept in large quantities in this part of the country. I've worked really hard trying to help it thrive, but it seems to be slipping away...this would be very tragic for me, please help!

They were in my trunk on the way home from the store & they bloomed, because I"m guessing from the heat.
