Harvey, Steve and Tog, thanks for your posts. My one and only Ae Ae looked much like Harveys(particularly the roots or lack of) and trying to baby it I potted it up with a soil mix that didn't include as much amendments such as bark chips ,sand perlite etc that I give my other plants. It basically withered till just a hole was left in the pot. Next time I'll learn from my own and your mistakes.
Steven thanks for sharing your ae ae info. It stinks to lose any plant but 6 ae ae's..... yikes. At least I'll be much better prepared for the next one.
