Am I in trouble? Now I have determined that the plant that looked half dormant and half not, stumping our expert for watering suggestions has indeed been attacked by red spider mites. Sad So explains why only parts of the branches were losing leaves while the others thrived I never saw the insects, the leaves just dropped off. My bad! Thumbs down I have treated it as if it were dormant and not watered it all this time while it has been in the house. Have I killed it?? I am going to move the plants back outside after next week. We have one night predicted at 37* other than than it is good weather to get them acclimated to the outdoors once again. Hints? Suggestions?
