Hello Jenny and everyone....sorry I have not posted a picture though I was gone in Europe for a week and then have been forgetting to bring in my camera to work where my plant sits.

Well the leaves of my plant still look good. They are perky and green and still standing up straight. The only odd thing is that some part of the base of the plant are starting to turn yellow. For example at the very bottom where the bottom leaf touches the roof, the place where the leaf connects to the root is very dry and almost a pale white and looks to be disconnecting from the root. Though this is only like for one centimeter.

Also the glue is coming undone and no longer is sticking to that area of the plant. And it is lifting up. The section where it was is a very pale brown/yellow color and seems very dry as well. It seems like the areas where the leaves connect to the base of the plant are turning dry and almost disconnecting from the plant.

Though the actual leaves themselves are big, green, and are standing upright. It's been almost 4 weeks since the accident and the leaves have been OK. Could it take over 4 weeks for the plant to start to deteriorate?

I will try and post a picture of what I am talking about later tonight
