Can anyone help me with this? Not getting fully formed new growth.

Located in coastal NC. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Someone was snacking?

Looks like some sort of infection in the crown that has now completely pushed out. Growth should be normal from this point forward.

@NC Palm I agree, it looks like it had a crown infection coming out of winter. Common recommendations here are hydrogen peroxide, Daconil, Mancozeb, and any copper-based fungicide. If the new growth looks clean then the infection is probably gone. A squirt of regular household hydrogen peroxide will tell you. If it bubbles up, fungus is present and may still need some treatment. If there's no bubbling, then no fungus is present. H202 works well on plants, just like on humans!
