I do hope that you caught it before it is too late. I did not notice that mine was drowning till it was too late. The snow had shifted the guttering and every time it rained a roof full of rain went into the pot!

Mine did that last year - it was caused by the pot getting too wet and the plant drowned. Check the soil and see if it is wet and if so lift out the plant and improve the drainage and add some fresh soil whilst there.
