What is it?
The other week I bought a plant at B&Q. The tag has gone missing so I don't
know what it is. It's like a small orange tree (30cm high ish) with small orange fruit on, although it's not quite the same as the one they are selling at the moment for Mothers' Day. Anyway, I've kept it moist, and in a cool conservatory, however the leaves have all dried p and drop of if touched. The fruit is starting to shrivel too. Before someone says it's dead, the stem still seems green and 'alive' and so do some of the small branches. I suspect it needs repotting as the roots are starting to poke out the soil. Any advice? Many thanks, Lee. www.menumania.co.uk |

Are the fruit smooth and marble sized? -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |

Any fine spiders webs on the tips of the shoots? Any round brown scales on the underneath of the leaves? -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |
