Preparing to plant out a batch of achachairu, acuminata and modruno from the nursery. Grown in tree pots they are at least two years old and two foot tall. Grown under 50% shade and have been exposed to morning sun for the last month to get them ready for the field.
Yesterday I noticed some leaf burn and drop on the achachairus. With rainy cool conditions ahead now is the time to plant but I don’t want to lose these plants or have to shade in the field.
Is this typical? Will they adapt and reshoot in ground or do I risk losing these plants?
Achachairu strikes me as very robust so I’m inclined to go for it and let them figure it out in ground.
