norfolk island pine

Question

We have this plant in a 12″ pot inside the house. We did not water it very often and was good for some time setting in a south facing window. It was moved to another room where it only got indirect sunlight. We were watering it only frequently and spraying it quite often with a spray bottle, and now the needles are falling off. We gave it a good drink of water but that didn’t help. We have not fertilized it, what should you use? Thank you.

Answer 1

Any all-purpose, balanced fertilizer will be fine. Fertilize in spring for the best results. Here is an article for more information: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/norfolk-pine/norfolk-island-pine-care.htm
