rpoole,

I'm afraid that you are going to have to provide more information. What species is it? What, if anything, has changed recently? What is the soil like, and is there a mass of pebbles glued to the surface? What are your watering practices and have they changed? Is there a drainage hole and is it free? Have you fertilized it recently and if so with what and at what strength? What type of lighting are you providing? Is there central heating? And any other relevant details you can provide.

We cant help much with such a generic question, the more information you provide the more helpful our response is likely to be.
