I recently repotted a serissa and a dwarf pomegranate tree that were looking good before I repotted them. Less than a week later I noticed that both of the tress are wilting and don't look so good. All the leafs are there and they are green in color but most of the leafs are wilted. I keep the trees indoor close to a window that gets about 4-6 of sun light and the temperature is about 24-25C, 75-77F in the room. Decent amount of humidity. Good draining soil with akadama, grit, soil that I use for my other bonsai tress, which are healthy. I heavly watered once since I repotted about 4 days ago.

Any idea why this is happening. Am over or underwatering? Are the trees just adjusting?

Thanks!
 
Indoor is the worst place for these plants now (and always). Lack of humidity will cause your problem. Find a shaded place outside, preferably under a tree and put them there.

Knowing where you are will also help make better recommendation.
 
I live in Toronto Ontario Canada. I believe zone 5
 
I am not sure of the temp there right now but if it is too cold and the plants need to stay indoors, consider putting a clear plastic over the plants including the top of the pot. This way, humidity is maintained until they are strong enough. Good luck!
 
It's about 10-16C, 50-60F in the afternoon and gets about 5-7C, 40-45F overnight. I'm afraid that it will get colder so I've kept them inside. Just to note I watered the trees a little this evening and a few hours later they already look a little better. Thanks for the replies and help!
