How to fertilize Red Leaf Sand Cherry

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Red Leaf Sand Cherry after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Help winter care I bought the tree online but I've never bought one before I don't know if its healthy and if I am caring for it correctly for winter prep/general care I've no idea what I am doing and endless YouTube videos and googling has become overwhelming 😂 I would love some advice as this app is also saying its an indoor plant and they grow in the wild locally... and bought as a patio plant :/ not good for an app you pay for! I've lined the pot with black weed membrane and then surrounded with loose clay soil and mulch ontop with cardboard I also added a foam cover to the trunk.. help I'm new to this!

Why yellow leaves?
-
The leaves are folded inwards on every leaf. It has grown that way. The leaves are waxy and not dry, but they are not broad, and as I said, fold inwards. What can I do to improve this? Or is this normal plum tree behavior? #AmericanPlumTree

Yellow leaves on skip laurels I have a few skip laurels that were planted in the fall and properly watered until the ground froze. Looked good all winter but now they are all developing yellow leaves. I thought it might be wind burn at first but it seems to be getting worse. Do I need to water?
