Can you repair a broken pittosporum tree?

Question

It's still pretty young about 70cm tall.

It has been snapped about half way up the trunk.

Answer 1

Wood glue and some nails should do it... at the least you'll still have a stick!

Answer 2

i Love trees..Hospital patients heal faster, require shorter stays and less painkillers if room windows face trees.

By cooling the air and ground around them, the shade from trees helps cool the Earth's temperature.

Trees help reduce the "greenhouse effect" by absorbing CO2. One acre of trees removes 2.6 tons of CO2 per year.

Answer 3

With love and a staple gun.

Answer 4

Hi

Maybe best to call your local nursery tomorrow and ask them?

From what I have read they are hardy trees, we have 6 of them. Our puppy chews them and breaks off the odd branch. If you leave it it may stay ok until spring when that might be the best time to prune it? I'm not sure if you can prune it back now it's Winter, if in Australia.
