I don't know if works in all varieties but our gardener told us and we tried in 3 different kinds and works perfectly. In Blue Agave, we cut the stem and then a new small one was born and also looks that new blooming is coming in the small part of the old stem. I really hope they survive. <br /><br />Very interesting comments from all of our searches.Ramon Gonzalezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16129830563029534511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-90267530269521645322017-11-22T11:26:37.096-08:002017-11-22T11:26:37.096-08:00image searching the first photo…

I forgot to in...Jon that is the same link we found. I forgot to include it. Heard back from my friend the now retired botany professor. What he shared is this: on pine trees there is no research that they produce more cones right before dying. They have a cycle of producing more cones and then to "recover" from this effort the next few years they may produce fewer cones. He then said that monocaroic plants are those that flower only once in their lives and then die imm. after the seed matures. Agave are one type of plant that do this. to answer do some plants flower more before dying some plants in this group could say to do this because they look like they are dying (the main growing stem does die) but then send out new shoots from the base. These new stems then take many years to flower. <br />On bougainvilleas he said they bloom in response to shortening days. They also prefer new wood so that is why they are heavily pruned. This stimulates new growth. We thought that maybe some people would mistake a pruned plant for one that is dead and hence think that they bloom more after appearing to have died.<br />Finally, he said that plants ultimately want to reproduce and many will flower more when under stress. He said that many people in the field believe it is a plant's "last gasp" before dying. He said this might be more empirical than fact-based. <br />So there you have it for what it is worth.

“It’s definitely an abnor...<br />www.bostoncbslocal.com:<br /><br />“It’s definitely an abnormal amount of pine cones,” said Peter DelTredici, Senior Research Scientist at the Arnold Arboretum.<br /><br />Deltredici says the pine cones falling from the trees now, actually started forming three years ago, so our winter weather isn’t to blame for the bumper crop. He says scientists believe it probably has to do with the insect population.<br /><br />Pine trees don’t produce the same amount of cones each year, he says, to throw off the insects that eat the cones.<br /><br />“Trees do this as a way of avoiding these predators, because if they produce the cones on erratic, unpredictable cycles the insects can’t adjust to them.”<br /><br /><br />http://www.fitzhugh.ca/<br />Sally Aitken, professor of Forest and Conservation Science at the University of British Columbia, says there may be a number of reasons, or a combination thereof, that have caused this profusion of cones.<br /><br />“It takes a lot of energy to produce seeds,” says Aitken, explaining that they are high in fat and nutrients. “It’s hard for a tree to put resources into forming new buds at the same time it is expanding and developing this year’s cones.”<br /><br />Masting helps trees get around a huge energetic output year after year.<br /><br />Aitken says that masting may also help avoid the build-up of insects and animals (like squirrels) that feed on seeds. “It’s thought that through masting, trees space out their seed production, and then produce a seed crop that is just too big for the available seed predators to wipe out.” This ensures seed is left over to grow into new trees.<br /><br />The cones that developed last year are even more obvious this year because they’ve grown bigger and browner, says Aitken, who suggests it’s likely this cone crop was initiated in 2012.<br /><br />My own experience: I have several large mature firs. They have been dying over the past 5 years due to the fir beetle, the worm of which eats channels thru the cambium layer thus interrupting the flow of water from the roots. Once the hydraulics system is air bound it can never be rebuilt. I have never seen my trees produce huge expensive-to-make seeds when they are gasping to just survive. I looked again just now with my binos--bare branches and no cones.<br /><br />3. "sudden efflorescence" goes nowhere useful. Suspect trick phrase. Nope, found it in Wikipedia meaning just the way you used it but almost never used anywhere else that I can find.

For pine trees had a hard time finding authoritative sources but found a post from CBS Boston that did a feature on the topic of why there were so many pine cones in the Boston area back in Fall of 2010. They spoke to Peter DelTredici, Senior Research Scientist at the Arnold Arboretum. Deltredici said it has to do with the insect population. And pine cone production gets larger in cycles from 3-7 years. He stated that pine trees do this to "trick" insects, “Trees do this as a way of avoiding these predators, because if they produce the cones on erratic, unpredictable cycles the insects can’t adjust to them.” <br />We are reaching out to one of my friends who is a former prof of botany to get an expert opinion!Debra Gottslebenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08074610468240387547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-66712486980867599902017-11-19T13:53:31.957-08:002017-11-19T13:53:31.957-08:00Still working with no results at the moment.
