Insect
Seedling
Hi,
3 weeks ago I bought a brush cherry from Bonsai Outlet in the mail. It came with 10% of inner leaves crispy, and plenty of outer growth. It began to drop more inner leaves, yet still grow, and drink a lot of water despite having organic soil. Last night I pass hands thru it and 50% of the leaves are crispy and come off. I contacted vendor 2 weeks ago, they said it was normal, just a worse progression now of same issues.
I have misted foliage, and all water used on tree is distilled, zero fertilizer, as when bought the tree looked like it had a lot of fertilizer as blue encrustments along soil. Branches are whitish dry, leaves had some whitish residue (when received), and otherwise it does have lush foliage and drinks a lot of water. I have begun misting leaves a little in the evenings.
Is it going to live? Ideas?
