I just planted a new tree in the front yard. I’m hoping for some future great shade, and beautiful flowers from this Hong Kong Orchid Tree. The nursery had it pruned so that it seems like a tall stick with some leaves on top…..but now it will be free to do what it wants for a while.
So I dug my hole in the Arizona soil, and backfilled a bit mixing in a little compost. Then I had to dig two additional holes for the poles to lend some support until the trunk grows strong enough.
This tree has spent it’s entire life in a 15 gallon plastic container. It’s branches have been trimmed off every year…forcing it to grow taller on a thin trunk. The trunk was taped in several places to a stake in the container. It’s never been able to thrive. It has never been able to move, sway, bend or grow on it’s own. Without the stake, it now seems fragile and weak.
So for the first watering, it got something special. A little energetic water to help it shift into the new home. I put 5 pellets of homeopathic silica 10M in the watering bucket, and briskly filled the bucket from the hose, with lots of bubbles and vortexing. Why not? Everything is energy, and if homeopathy can make an energetic shift in people and animals, why not plants too?
Homeopathic silica is helpful for failure to thrive, lack of confidence, and weakness. I suppose a little aconite for the shock of the planting, and a little rescue remedy wouldn’t hurt either. But homeopathic silica is known as “The Gardner’s Friend”…..well, time will tell for my new tree.
Good luck with your new tree. Energy is energy. I know Super Blue Green Algae is great for people, trees/gardens, horses and other animals, so why not homeopathy also
Thanks….good to know!
I love my orchid tree. A few years ago it was hurt by the big freeze and looked like a giant lollipop. But this year is back to it’s more natural shape. I wonder if it would have healed faster with a little silica?
WELL…. there is a book i just found out about from the author, on twitter….time for me to get a copy

Hi Greg,
The book is great and so is homeopathy for plants. Show us the pictures, I like to see how it grows.
Enjoy,

You should have planted two trees, and watered one with ‘energy water’, and other with normal water. And observe the difference in health and growth rate. Otherwise, how can you say ‘energy water’ was good for plant?
