@UltraAsarina Hi Mark, are you seeing adequate growth or is he not growing?
@YammieOf3 He doesn’t seem to be growing much . I’ve had him for over a year and he looks the same as the day I brought it home.
Hi Mark…I might suggest putting it outdoors in a place it can get as much morning to early afternoon direct sunlight- just don’t let it get the afternoon Arizona sun- it’s too hot. These are slow growers, but yours should have some new growth in a year. Also, a 7 inch pot may be too big. Because of slow growth, they like to be a bit root bound. 7 months is a long time to go without watering- I water mine every 2 weeks (I live in Texas and it’s hot here too). Terracotta pots are the best, but they also allow the soil to dry out quicker when temps go up.
