Hi there,

I was given a giant redwood sapling as a gift. I've followed all the instructions as best I can and it's growing pretty well, but only from the top half. The bottom half is pretty stunted and the whole tree is beginning to get a bit top heavy. For a while it had very brown, dead tips and I pruned these off (because I thought they might grow better without this) and now they're just stuck in a sort of no-grow mode. I don't understand, the rest of the tree is growing on overdrive, so if anyone had any tips I'd be hugely grateful! The last thing I want is for it to die (being a gift from my other half) but I'm just so un-greenfingered.

Thanks!
