    I have had the above plant since just before the Christmas holidays
    I have done evrything I think I should have but I have lost all the leaves but for 2 or 3 I did not overwater water (at least I do not think I did) nor did I underwater it but no matter what I seemed to do it just seemed to sit there just checked the plant has 6 leaves on it and one more about to fall off any and all suggestions would be helpful to keep this plant and thanks

    A review of threads containing [search]Murraya paniculata[/search] may prove useful.

    Gosh, yet another common name for the plant. Yes, there have been many posts on this plant. You can read up on it to see if there is something amiss in your care of the plant.

    bkdr206, have you checked closely for bugs? Consider the humidity of your home as well, often houses are too dry.

    though the meter says normal between 40 and 60 lately the needle stays close to 40 about 44 45 so this could be the problem low humidity would appreciate any help in getting it going again we heat that part of the house with wood though we put water on top of the heater could I move to a room facing east that is heated with the main oil unit and I put a dish with stones and water or have I lost it competely now that most of the leaves have fallen off wold appreciate any and all suggestions think it is a goner though only 2 tiny green branches left thanks for any help ca

    Do some research on this plant to see if it's possible to have it placed outside in a protected spot. My notes indicate it's safe with minimums around 10C/50F. If not, perhaps a neighbor has a room with a more suitable environment that you could use until it's warm enough outside. Otherwise try to find a spot in the house that has bright light, cooler temperatures, and is free from drafts. You should be extra careful to not overwater now that the plant has lost most of its leaves.
