my history is stuck in my custom PS1 [SOLVED]

PS1="\033[1;37m┌─[\033[0m\033[0;34m\w\033[0m\033[1;37m][\033[0m\033[1;37m\[\033[0m\033[1;30m\h@\033[0m\033[1;32m\u\033[0m\033[1;37m]\n\[$B\]└─>\033[0m "

┌─[~][eeepc@greenbox]
└─>

after typing a few commands and when I try to view my history, the text somehow get's "stuck"

┌─[~][eeepc@greenbox]
└─>leaf n .bashrc

The command I just entered is n .bashrc NOT leaf (previous command)

leaf (always 4 letters get's stuck) is my previous command: leafpad cscript

I'm just getting started with trimming a PS1, so I realise i've probably missed a few steps.

Thank You
