So, the plant faired okay until I went out to check it at 3pm. I found it to be in direct sunlight - (thought that side of the house did not get any sunlight until 4:30 or so, but I was wrong). Some wilting noted, but not bad. The UV index was really high today, (15 out of 16) so I am attributing the wilt today to the sun exposure. Conditions at 3 pm were:

80 degrees F
Humidity 45%
Wind WNW @ 7, gusts to 14.
UV 14/16

The same conditions were present at 2pm, and there was no wilt noticed at that time. (It was still in full shade).

Odd thing is, this thing wilted like mad the other day when it was overcast!

Here is the slight wilt photo taken at 3 pm.

I have moved it back under the shade so we shall see if it recovers of crashes.

I promise after today, I will stop obsessing about this thing. I am just going to leave it is in the full shade and leave it alone. Will report back when it croaks and/or turns the corner and begins to grow. It hasn't grown at all since I have owned it.

Thanks again to all.
