my mexican velde is dying and I don't know why. it's new to the garden this year and gets full sun, but is all brown and woody. with only two green stems remaining. i potted it and moved it to a part sun area to see if it would recover. do you have any ideas about how best to save it? i live in Newburyport, MA US
I'm afraid I don't, Linda. Did it get too much rain?
