              How old is it @Beckie76 ? Is it in the type of soil mix that they love? Too dry maybe?
              A piccie would help,

              Hi @ Jenny namaste, it's in a pot of general purpose compost, mmmm I wonder if I'm not watering enough, through the winter I tend not to water very often I bet that's half the problem. I will post a piccie. :blue thumb:

              They need an ericaceous compost Beckie, so it could be that which is holding it back
