Start Shriveling at the top and work its way down? TIA...Jeanne
What causes a Brug to?
Good question. I have one rooting in water doing the same thing. Getting root nodules and leaves in water, but above water is shriveling and worked its way to the top of the water.
Looking forward to hearing the answer to this, too.

I have one that is doing that also.. Hasn't put out a single leaf yet and I have unpotted it twice to check the roots.. the first time it had one new root and this last time it had several more new roots so I am hanging in there.
They should take off growing as soon as you can get them outside for summer.
Sometimes cuttings will do this. They will shrivel down to a leaf node and then stop.
If the cutting has roots there's a good chance it will survive and put out a new shoot from the soil or the leaf node where the shriveling stopped.
mine is not shriverling but I have a nice size wood Y cutting in soil for about a month, it has nice roots but no sign of a growth anywhere, it is in my greenhouse so I will leave it untill I can plant it outside.
at this point kareoke, I would say healthy roots are more inportant than leaves.
If ya had leaves but no roots , then I would worry.
The leaves will come.
Thanks scooter I need all the encouragement I can get lol
Hang in there, I just found out that I murdered my prize Snowbank ;'(
She was coming out of dormancy really well then all of a sudden she just gave up.
Gotta find another one. In my shady garden she was the main highlight and a real beaut .
Whhaaaaahhhhhhhh ! *sobs*
AWWWW 'pat pat on the head' soooo sorry
never mind you will get another one
AWWWWWWWWW Scoot, that's too bad, hopefully you'll get one soon. Not to worry, this happens to the best of us, I know the feeling!
Scoot mine did the same thing. It had gotten about 3 inches and just like that it disappeared. I still have hope for it.
Hey jim, thought you'd be in Iowa this weekend .....
But then ............ I also thought I would be there .LOL
Oh well, next year */;-)
Hope your SB makes it.
Scoot, do you have a clue what caused her demise?? I know it wasn't premeditated murder, so what gives, or do you know??
