One of our allspice trees (we have 5) died recently. It seemed to happen fairly rapidly. The tree was about 10 years old.
Are these short lived trees? Because they grow fairly fast as a commercial crop the trees are cut and allowed to regrow when they get too large to easily harvest. Should this be done to all of them as a matter of course?
Thanks for any help.
