Larch (Larix laricina): Something I should worry about?

Hey @A.Cole411, So that Larix recovered to the extent that the leafs turned dark green and it is growing well, I pruned the second growth that came along after it went outdoors and now there’s a third set of buds that are starting to elongate. However the foliage is still disheveled and messy. For comparison see this other yamadori (both are but the first one I don’t know where was it collected) that is in this pot probably since collection two years ago, it has much smaller growth. I hope that the first one gets to get such attractive foliage once it’s root system get to really occupy the container as the second one probably has…

and here is the second one for comparison with respect to leaf size (it didn’t have any issues as the first one). Both pictures are from this morning.

Hope this helps. My suggestion is to keep the BWO and depending where you’re (if you don’t really have a summer dormancy period) keep fertilizing. If it doesn’t recover prior to loosing the leafs, I’d also suggest to arrange for winter storage between 1C and 7C (35-45F) - but I’d be glad if others comment on my suggestions as I am by no means sufficiently experienced.
