As of yesterday, it has responded well, budding on every branch tip and in several spots on old wood. Lots of sun and fertilizer should recharge the battery for the next phase of development, which involves reducing buds to two (or three for insurance) in each spot (mid June), then old needle plucking (October/November). It's a mess right now (no needle trimming was done), but the future looks bright.
