11 years ago

Hello

I have had a 'bonsai' ficus plant indoors for 4 months, but recently the leaves are turning brown and falling off, starting from the top and slowly making their way down to the lower parts of the plant. i dont feel the watering has changed, neither has its location. not sure how to help th eplant anymore, not enjoying watching it go like this, some advice please.

Thank you

k,

Ask this question on the Bonsai Forum. My guess it needs be taken outside and give high temps, high humidity(water tray) and plenty of water. Only bring in doors when it gets cold. It is a tropical plant. JMHO Aloha
