I bought a beautiful multi-color croton a couple of months ago and it seemed to be doing fine for a few weeks then leaves started falling off - water was right but it was near the cold air return so I moved it to the living room. We left for about a week and when we got back it looked like this!!!

It still has green in the stems and I am at a loss as to what happened. If I put it out in the spring is there any chance it will come back or should I just give it a burial?
