Hi, Suzy,
Hard to say. Moving it into a pot put it into more stress and cutting back could compound that. Any chance you could post a photo? Is the top dying back/damaged/wilted with growth lower down on the plant okay? If so, cut back to the healthy bits.

I have two plants that were in the ground but they started wilting so I moved them in to ports. One has somewhat revived but the other hasn't. Should I cut it back to see if it will come back?

Hi, Aileen,
You can cut back the dead/damaged stems now. You'll lose flowering, but cutting out the dead/damaged will rejuvenate the plant. If you still want to see flowers this spring on the branches that are healthy, cut back the stems after flowering.

Winter just ended and most of the leaves of my blackbird euphorbia is wilting.. Some are still fine (like 3-4 branches) what could I do to save the plant? Should I cut the dying parts?
