Q.Bringing A Bay Tree Back To Life
Hello, I had a beautiful bay leaf tree in a small half gallon pot in the sunny kitchen window. It did wonderfully all winter and spring, but just in the last two weeks, it stopped absorbing water and all its leaves dried up. I took it out of the window, repotted it and put it outside in full sun. The bottom two inches of its small trunk is green, but above that is brown. All its leaves are gone. Can I save this tree? S
