Nice to see such rich new green growth. Looks very healthy.

Another slow year for this one - not a big surprise given the pot and root work.
There is callus rolling around the chop, but as you might imagine it is slow at this rate of growth. The only thing that will really improve this tree is some time in a bigger container or the ground - maybe this spring, if I feel like the roots are sorted out enough for some unchecked growth . . .

Thanks for the interest @defra and @milehigh_7
