Hi! I bought this Banyan Roy from Home Depot like this because I was attracted to the tree like look (with leaves only at top). However, after viewing other pictures of much leafier Banyans, I want branch/leaves to come out the bottom nodes, which are aplenty. 2+ weeks ago I notched every node and applied Keiki paste (white sap came out after notching). So far, nada. Any tips for me? Also wondering, if I cut off the top, 1-2 leaves down, will it grow back out as two branches where I cut or just one? Thx!

    If you get more light to the lower part of the plant the lower nodes will leaf out

      There’s a window right above it that gets good sun half of the day. I feel like the nodes are dead. But I’ll try putting a light on it

      Thank you! I’ve been using a light on the Banyans empty nodes and especially the one that went black, and it looks like it’s starting to turn green! Still no luck with the bottom half nodes not producing despite notching by and applying keiki paste weeks ago.
