Parajubaea Torallyi is leaning. Suggestions from someone that has had one before ?

Featured Replies

Planted this parajubaea torallyi last week from a 25g container. It was leaning in the container and looks almost worst in the ground. Any suggestions so that I do not have a long term issue ?

Water! And lots of it if your soil drains pretty well...if not, let it dry out a bit before soaking again.

I've dug and transplanted quite a few of these and they're generally pretty tough, so hopefully it pulls through.

South Arm, Tasmania, Australia - 42° South

Mild oceanic climate, with coastal exposure.

 

Summer: 12°C (53°F) average min, to 21°C (70°F) average daily max. Up to 40°C (104°F max) rarely.

 

Winter: 6°C (43°F) average min, to 13°C (55°F) average daily max. Down to 0°C (32°F) occasionally, some light frost.

do they ever lean like that ? the trunk is almost fully straight. never had this issue before

No, I've never had that issue.

Has the weather been stinking hot since you planted it out? They seem happiest in cooler conditions usually, so it might be a bit of heat stress potentially?

The more I look at your pictures, the more I think it needs a deep drink!
