Fukien Tea Bonsai Leaves Drooping
It is a fukien tea well watered and kept in a shady place.
Fukien tea bonsai leaves drooping. Individuals that travel a lot or who are prone to neglect watering will not do well with this plant as it prefers more attentiveness. My fukien teas usually drop leaves yearly iirc but they are replaced fairly quickly almost as they drop. The fukien tea bonsai must be kept moderately moist and will shrivel easily or simply stop growing if the root ball is permitted to dry out completely. When night time temperatures drop below 45 degrees we suggest that you place the tree on a windowsill or on a table in front of one.
The leaves are all turning brown and dropping off one of the branches has no leaves left at all. The humidity tray provides a small bubble of moisture around the tree to keep the tree from drying out. A few months of overwatering will lead to root rot only visible in the tree losing strength and dropping its leaves. I also know that once you let them dry out totally to the point that the leaves wilt those leaves will most likely drop but again will be replaced quickly.
Overwatering is a common reason when the indoor bonsai is planted in poor soil that retains too much water. The ideal indoor location is on a window sill facing south. It is an indoor plant with no insect infestation. Periodically spraying the tree with a mist bottle will also help improve humidity.
Once nightly lows begin approaching the 40 degree mark it is time to bring your indoor bonsai inside.
