As soon as I did this, the leaves have shrivelled up. AFAIK I'm not over or under watering it, and there are no signs of beasties. What's wrong with it? It would be helpful if we knew what the plant was, how long you have had it and it's size. and a picture. I don't know what it is, it was given to me a year ago, and has flourished in all that time and grown larger. Only changing pot made it do this. Here's a pictu http://petersphotos.com/temp/Shrivelled.jpg Was the photo taken in summer? No, just now, in winter. The room is 18C, 45% humidity. It looks to be suffering from lack of water but it could equally be too much water which has rotted the roots, the symptoms are the same. Quite a dry atmosphere for a tropical plant too, not near a radiator by any chance? -- Regards. Bob Hobden. Posted to this Newsgroup from the W of London, UK |
