sadly i would say not. the leaves shouldnt disappear. stay static yes as it settles then re grows.

If it is a reliable garden store Tsssis, you should be able to return it and get a refund. It's certainly worth a try.

Thank you both. I did call the garden center and they told me that the plant is most likely in shock, makes sense. If there is no growth by the end of summer they will replace it or give me a credit. She said all their plants are fully guaranteed. :) I will let you know what happens!

New growth has started to poke through the soil within 2 days i guess i found it the perfect home!! Hope to put up some pictures before the end of summer. :)

Good news Tsssis! Look forward to seeing the pics....:o)

Thanks!
