Dear Gerry, I'm a novice gardener. Last year my mother gave me two potted small fern trees (box/bux? I think she called them). One is thriving but the other has a lot of brown and hasn't grown at all. When I realised the pot had no drainage holes a few months ago I remedied that and then this month added a new layer of compost. It still looks miserable next to its healthy neighbour. What would you recommend to bring it on?
