Norfolk Island Pine

Question

My NIP has healthy green branches only at the top of its eight foot height. The rest of the plant is just brown trunk. Also, some of those top branches are turning brown. What to do?

Answer 1

It is normal for Norfolk Island pine trees to have some browning on the bottom branches. But if the brown branches seem to be high on the plant or if they can be found all over the tree, this is a sign that the plant is either overwatered, underwatered or is not getting enough humidity.
