Can I Mend A Half Torn 1″ Thick Forsythia Limb?

Question

Hi My forsythia is 17 years old and this past winter twisted one of the larger limbs but it did not break. I can see through it as there’s a large slit where the twist happened but the limb is still connected as it’s budding. But it’s hanging and I wonder if there’s some kind of organic glue I can use to repairing it?

Answer 1

Tape is used instead of glue. This article should help:
