Scrape the bark if it is green you have a chance. It looks like a juniper. Which are notorious for looking like they are alive. When they in fact are not. Then if it is alive do as KC said. I believe in plants are like humans in the respect when they are sick they do not want to eat. A tonic like Seasol will definitely help.

It was Juniper Procumbens Nana. It was a tree that was started at a beginner course in October last year. I'm not sure I'll get to see it again but the indication was that there was a significant improvement since it had been in the bag.

I would love to know the final outcome of that plastic bag technique.
