I was given the gift of a beautiful ficus bonsai tree about 8 months ago. It was doing beautifully until this weekend. I had the plant in my office I watered on a regular basis and the tree was putting out new growth and leaves. I was out of the office on Friday and over the weekend. I watered it well before I left on Thursday and left water in the tray under the plant. When I returned on monday, all the leaves on the tree were dried up, and the soil was extremely dry. Someone had entered my office and the heat was turned up. When I arrived on Monday the temp in the room was around 100 degrees. I have cut all of the dead leaves off the plant and currently have just the truck and small branches. PLEASE tell me there is hope for this tree. I love it and want to do what I can to bring it back. I have it sitting in a tray with water and I am keeping the soil moist. any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Join the club. This forum is being flooded again with dead or dying "bonsai".

Probably a "Ginseng" which is often not really considered a bonsai.

Bad climate for bonsai, especially when:

100 degrees! That's the temperature water boils! Can't be good.

PLEASE tell me there is hope for this tree.

If it completely dried out, roots may have dried out as well - specifically the finer hair roots. If that happened, recovery is unlikely.

A picture would help though.

Don't do that. If the roots are affected, this will cause root rot.
