Greetings fellow greeners,

Unfortunately someone has wilted if not maybe killed off my plant.

It it was moved (not by me) to a very cold conservatory. It looked okay at first then now looks like pic. 

It it is now in its normal spot but should I trim the leaves off and where from...

Many thanks for any advice.

    i'd give it benefit of the doubt as it might regrow from the trunk, how cold might it have got below 5 C or below 0C?

    Prob below 0. It was inside but very very cold. I'll trim the leaves off and give it a month

    you might get lucky, keep it warm, give it plenty of light and hope for the best

    ... and I wouldn't water it until you see signs of life ... keep the soil just  a little damp to the touch.
