With any tree the thing to look for is new growth. A few yellowing needles may be a result of the re pot, but as long as the new growth is pushing out I wouldnt worry fella. |

Will - listen to Auntie Gwen. Evergreen trees are just that. They are for ever green. If they kept every leaf or needle that they ever grew, they wouldn't be able to support themselves. So, guess what? Right, sunshine ! They lose the older ones; either more or less all at the same time or in fits and starts throughout the year. The new growth appears on the branch tips and anything that yellows back down the other end is just old needles/leaves being shed to keep the balance of the tree. On the other hand, if all the tree has gone yellow ... bring it round here immediately.
