Yellow Banksia Rose: January 2024 update

I repotted this in mid-November looking to stop a steady decline in the tree. It’s seven weeks later, so let’s check in.

Immediately after repot.
Seven weeks later.
  • The leaves are a fresher green that looks like new growth
  • The active shoots have lengthened
  • There’s a whole new shoot coming out the bottom (which will eventually have to go)
  • I seem to have lost the shoot at the top of the old branch
  • The two old growth branches seem pretty dead.

All up, this is successful so far. Enough so that I need to do something about the rightmost shoot, which is turning straight up. Given the two old growth branches seem dead, I imagine this is going to become a semi-cascade. So I want that stalk flatter.
