It was approx 5' tall in a tub (diameter 15") It steadily dropped all its leaves in spite of my attempts to adjust water, light, draught. In the last few months it has sprouted new leaves at the base of the trunk, which are the only sign of life, so I have been reluctant to remove them. The tops of the 3 main stems seem to be dead and have lost all their leaves. What should I do ? Can I revive it ? I would be so sorry to lose it, but it is in a pitiable state. Please advise
