Hi all,
I received a bareroot fuji cherry this winter, I potted in a root bag and kept in an unheated garage. My plan was to grow out in a raised bed for 2-3 years to build the primary structure. The soil is a mix of diatomaceous earth and a mix of 1/1/1 lava, akadama, bonsai block. It finally pushed buds, but the leaves are curling inwards toward the center. I did some Google-fu and couldn't pull anything as a concrete response. I'm leaning towards the soil holding more water than I think it is. I have it currently on an angle to help drain any excess water. I tend to have random fungal issues in the spring so I also sprayed with Fung-Oil when I saw the curling.
