I don't know what to do to make it turn green. This has grown well enough considering it spent a lot of early life in overcrowded conditions and has increased to three fans. But it just looks starved for something it's not getting. It's potted in the same mix as other plants and they are green enough. This has lived through two winters and has been re-potted twice. I'm considering dumping it out of the pot and washing everything off and just putting it in potting soil and nothing else. It's true that the seedlings of this pod parent have a tendency to do this (one looks like an albino but is also 2 years old now - I keep that one out of curiosity), but still think this is a nutrition deficiency some how, some way. Any suggestions? It's had Miracle Grow, Epsom salt, 13-13-13 fertilizer, alfalfa via tea and pellets, I think a bit of Azalea food, over the time it's grown. When it get hot, it turns a bit greener but not like the other plants.
