Sorry to hear about your Meliflua...I'm sure it will be fine once it gets going :o)

Love the blooms on this one. I grow mine outside almost all year under some Large Oak trees and its been known to grow up the huge trunks/branches...

Fingers crossed yours will do just fine...

I have the same problem with my meliflua. I think if you look at new leaves wrong, they'll drop. Once the leaves are a certain size, they're tough as nails, but geez, it takes nothing to drop the baby leaves. I find it hard to believe they can develop leaves at ALL in nature as there are SO many more things that can disturb them - insects, a breeze, leaves blowing by, etc... I feel lucky if I get a few good leaves each season.
