Hi All,
I have recently been o/s and came home to a little disaster.I had a good friend water my plants for me .Unfortnately we had a mini hail storm come threw.It was placed in a protected area but with no sun. It appears to have become very waterloged as there was algae growing on the surface.It has lost almost all of its leaves,there are a few buds and it is green under the bark. The bark appears to be wrinkled,hopefuly it will come back.I will have to withdraw it from the comp. I have posted a few pictures to show how it turned out. :cry:
Cheers John.

Given the timeline from beginning this is a cracking ROR, it just looks right on the rock, you could not guess that it has been just over 12months in the making.Fingers crossed it drys out.
