well i dont know if any one knows but all up and down the west coast its been very very hot well yesterday it got up to like 113 and then it got real windy later i noticed that some of the new growth on the top and through out the whole plant were burnt not all the way but it kinda got worse the next day like i said it didnt burn it all the way but do you think that it will come back ok,oh and i was thinking about toping it cuz the top is kinda dropy what is the latest that you can top a plant???

....It "IS" a hot, dry wave 'son...."I" wouldn't do any topping at this point. My thoughts are that it is being stressed a plenty, by Ma Nature, no need me adding to it.
If it is an established plant, it will be .."ok". The heat and wind won't last forever.
