We have a Spicy Jatropha about 2 years old. It's about 6 feet tall, growing in front of a south-facing fence where it gets full sun (late morning until evening).

Back in March, it had some new growth at the top of all the stems. Then, we had a late cold spell one night and temps dipped into the low thirties, nipping the new growth.

Now I don't see any new growth --- or maybe it's just afraid to come out, LOL. The only sign of life is one leaf on a lower branch. I haven't scratched any branches yet to check for green... I'm remaining hopeful that tomorrow, tomorrow it will start growing again.

We have another one still in the 1-gal black nursery pot I purchased earlier this year. It's only a foot high, and has lots of top growth and blooms. It's in a different spot in the yard but I don't think it gets any more sun than the other one.

What's up with our Jatropha?
