it has been fed with wilko house hold plant food, but still seems to be on its last legs. anything else i can do?

Great plant, hard to grow unless you can give it the heat and humidity of a greenhouse or conservatory?

Does that answer your question Steve?

Sorry to be so blunt but it really annoys me that this plant is sold in many places as a house plant and it is simply not able to survive in such an environment.
