Sorry I can't help you OP but I'll be keeping a close eye on your thread because I also have a tea tree plant and it hasn't fared well with the winter at all. Have the leaves on yours been continually going dry, brown and brittle since the winter? If so you've got the same problem I have - let's hope someone has a solution!

hi ellie, they look completely dead to be honest, i broke off one of the branches today to see if there was any moisture or sap and it seemed dry and dead. i'm going to give it another week or so. my mother also had one that she thinks is gone!!
