Yeah...this is bad. It is/was a Fabian Aralia, who used to be several feel tall.

This plant did not adjust well when we moved in February. It didn't like any place I put it.

I thought maybe fresh soil would help but I think it got overwatered. I cut off all the droopy stems and will concentrate on root health to get the stump strong so it can push out leaves in the spring.

Feeling a bit down....she was thriving before we moved!

How is she doing now? Mine also was super lush but has become totally barren. Did you get any improvement?

Nope. The roots completely rotted and that was the end. I think part of my issue was the soil. But sadly, she is gone. She was beautiful! I hope you have better luck!!!
