Thanks a lot Clicio!
In fact my little JWP has been thriving for 3 years and was able to stand one month of such high temperatures (normally mid June to mid-July)...
This year, as I said, is quite exceptional and yes, I'm afraid to lose this little one... a couple of branches are already gone.
As to overwatering... my trees are all in akadama or akadama+pumice.
I have never experienced akadama crushing down to mud as some other enthusiasts from colder countries report. However, as I do not have a garden but just a balcony with benches, I am compelled to use trays under the pots not to flood the floor...
So I need to be very careful, preventing water that has drained off the pot holes from lingering in the tray for too long...
