Hi,

Just need a bit of advice on how to look after this plant please, the
bottom of each has started to die off........?

Also should I cut off the twig like things sprouting from the plant
itself??

Sorry I am a bit of an amateur where this is concerned and would
appreciate any help as I want to get it right!!

The die off is normal, leaves shaded out by the leaves above. Cut em if you

want, they are the remains of the flower heads.

The plant looks healthy enough, you may trim all lower stalks as needed

and the dead flower stems should be removed only because of
asthetics.Good luck.

Beware of so-called tree experts who do not understand tree biology.
Storms, fires, floods, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions keep reminding us
that we are not the boss.
Some people will buy products they do not understand and not buy books that
will give them understanding.
