Hello,

Someone left this potted tree in the back of a car and the top leaves got burnt and eventually fell off. There is only one leaf left on the top of the 3 foot tree.

Is there anything that I can do to help it recover quicker?

Thanks

I would say give it good air circulation, sun and water and it should re-sprout anew; I don't know how quickly it will happen but as long as the roots are still healthy and viable, it will happen given the right conditions.

I agree. I am curious is this identified as a P. clusioides? Because the leaf looks like P. rubra from what I can tell.
