@hargshirl it looks dry. My recommendation would be to put into a larger pot with some fresh compost and give it a nice water. Then place into a semi shade position. Don't give up yet just needs some love 👌

@hargshirl its not looking in good shape, however is there any signs of life at all? Tiny buds? Where are you storing it? I.e. is it getting light?
