Pitomba Branch Dieback

[BPelkey]

I have a Pitomba growing in a 10 cu-ft planter.  About once a month a branch dies as shown in the second pic attached below.  Any idea of the cause?  The plant has doubled in size in 2 years and occasionally sets a few fruits.

I was told they need micro-nutrient sprays in the winter.

Could be the same as with mangoes. Tips die during cold spelles and get infected then infection goes down. Just a thought

This is a persistent problem with many eugenias. Never figured out what causes it.

Thanks for the replies.

Aaron- I would expect the entire plant to exhibit nutrient deficiency symptoms, not just one branch at a time.  But I don't see a down side to trying micro-nutrients so I'll try it.

Lebmung- We're in the Florida Keys and haven't had a cold snap in a very long time so I don't think that's the cause.

Cookie Monster- You may be correct and I'll just have to accept it until a solution is found.

Thanks again.
