How to fertilize Holly Needlepoint
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Holly Needlepoint after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Winterberry Holly I bought a healthy Winterberry Holly two weeks ago. We planted it and watered it a few days later. We broke the root ball and planted it correctly. The leaves drooped a few days later and started turning black. I did remove the bottom branches touching the ground. Today it rained some and almost all the leaves fell off. The berries are still there. Is it dead? It has a one year warranty. 😕

Syngonium Watering Day! I love these babies so much, they just make me so happy to look at them lol i just bought this “silver” syngonium but Greg says she’s a Holly or white butterfly and i didn’t even see silver syngonium on the list. #PlantID any guesses? I’m also just noticing these little brown dots, I’m hoping it’s just old sunburn spots. 😅 #Syngonium #PinkSyngonium #Holly
