# Friends! The Amate on the left is my 80 yo Aunts tree, it’s over 20…

_Posted by V🌱 on 2024-03-24_

Friends!  
The Amate on the left is my 80 yo Aunts tree, it’s over 20 years old.  
The one on the right I rescued from my old apartment.

They are both sooo leggy and growing lots of top leaves but dropping some as well.

I tried notching last week, so maybe that will work.

Any suggestions?
