Who stripped my Dwarf Poinciana?

I now have beef with either the neighborhood cats/chickens or the people that do our yard. Someone completely ripped it up!! I am so devastated, honestly. It had so many beautiful leaves and it was growing so so well. Now he’s all nakey πŸ˜”

I'm sorry to hear about the damage to your Dwarf Poinciana. Identifying the culprit could help address the issue. It might be worth discussing with your neighbors or considering protective measures like fencing or repellents for your plants. To encourage new growth on your Dwarf Poinciana, ensure it receives proper care. Provide sufficient water, sunlight, and a balanced fertilizer. Prune any damaged or dead branches to promote new growth. With time and care, your plant may recover and produce new leaves.
@Lunatik4 thank you so much, I’ll definitely be keeping an even closer eye on it from here on out and giving it some extra care! I also discovered that my Manila tamarind was also torn apart. And it’s splintered so I know it wasn’t a clean cut from mowing equipment like a weed eater (as it’s too close to wood for a mower to fit there) and as for mochi here he was in the garden bed so I don’t think the mowers would go into gardens and mow down peoples plants lol
