I was thrilled with it as any plant I bring home is going to die long before it's time. My efforts every spring to brighten up the patio always turn to drooping, dying messes in a short time. So, this plant was a welcome sight every spring. Well, the weird extreme and long-lasting cold snap we had in February appears to have done to my flowering whateveritis what I have done to every plant, ever. Bummed about it...but we had 15 springs/summers together. <sigh>
Take a small knife and cut carefully through the outer bark. If the inside is the least bit green, there’s hope.
