Help with Macadamia Nut Tree

11 years ago

Hello People!

I bought my mom a Macadamia nut sapling about a year and a half ago, but I'm running into some problems with it. Due to our chilly climate in the winter I planted it in a pot and keep it indoors during the fall/winter and outside during the spring/summer. It grew rather well last year, however about a week ago I put it outside for a single day and night when it started to warm up (I believe the temperature varied from about 69H to 50L) and now half the plant looks very...stressed?

Anyone know how I can nurse it back to health? Pictures for reference:

The greener leaves towards the bottom are the ones that were growing on the sapling when I got it, the not-so-green leaves are all the leaves that sprouted afterwards. Any inputs would be much obliged :)
