hi banner
i dont think you should prune it but it looks like it may have dried out at some stage or it could be in a windy site.if it is dried out it would be good to water well and add a feed if it is in a windy site maybe move it to a more sheltered part of the garden |

i thought i might plant some hedera and /heather or around the base of the
What feed would hedera need?would the feed for the bamboo be ok? it is miracle grow?
I have fed a hedera in a stand alone pot with tomato feed which i was feeding some window boxes with. It does not seem to be doing good. Did i make a big mistake? |

tomato food is great for bedding plants and tomatoes and gives a nitrogen boost to other plants but you would need a stronger food such as general purpose granular fertilizer for the bamboo. the hedera will thrive on any quality of soil.it will take a while for it to settle in to its new enviornment so i wouldnt worry |
