For those of you with one, are your branches growing currently?

Hopefully it's just a phase and soon it will start sprouting new growth.
We planted one a couple of years ago. It lost its leaves in the frost but has come back nicely. I have been more concerned about leaves than new growth but it looks like it has had some new.



Note that the Bougainvillea near the house is still browned out, will likely need some trimming. We have a Ficus hedge in the back that had similar problems.
