Your Prunus okame might be struggling because it’s an outdoor species kept indoors without a proper dormancy period, even with your solid care routine. I recommend moving it outside when temps allow and keep a close eye on soil moisture, as your 33-50% indoor humidity might be drying it out too fast.
