My potted victoria plum slow at growing? see pic please

Hi All

I bought this tree few months ago, potted it in a large pot, but it seems rather slow at growing, hardly any leaves , my other trees I planted I ground are doing better. Any ideas how can I improve this growth?

As you can see from pic, not much growing!

Thanks

Plant it Husk.
The problem is that there are no really effective dwarfing root stocks for plums as yet. Even ones like Pixie etc, are nowhere near as good as those for other top fruits. So the root systems are still rather large and greedy. Get it in the ground and it should get going.

Thanks J.
Shame I will have to move it out of the pot.
