Lychee sapling.
Warning: This is a longish post.
Hello, my lychee (in a pot) has lost all of its leafs.
Some background: I acquired it about 3 weeks ago. This is about 9 inches tall air layered. Hak Ip variety. Had beautiful large leaves. I kept it in my apartment which was too dark (about 2 weeks) and it started to decline. By that, I mean its leafs began to slowly die back. I decided to transfer it to my parent's house but in the meantime I left it in my car about 8 hours I had to go to work (windows rolled partway down). It really declined as in dropping most of its leafs. I managed to get it into a pot with 3 leafs remaining. Two were brown and contorted (not entirely dry) the third..about 50% green. Last week it dropped these as well. The small limb also came off easily revealing a greenish spot where it connected to the trunk. I potted it in typical potting soil, peat moss, and some green sand. I watered thoroughly.
My question: Should I put up with it or acquire a new one?
I don't want to go through the summer looking at a proverbial "stick". Too bad, because it was easily the nicest looking tropical I have.
This lychee is a touchy plant I must admit.
