What's happening with my Ficus 名媛直播? was created by KCarter90

Hi,

I've had a Ficus 名媛直播 tree for over two years... when purchased it was clearly in good health, seemingly strong branches and an abundance of leaves.
It had been going fine for a long time, dropped a leaf very rarely etc. However, over a year ago (maybe 16 months ago) i moved house and set it in its new position under guidance with its requirements... & then over a relatively short period of time leaves began dropping and left maybe 3/4 of the tree bare. Yet, one maybe two branches have remained stable & have retained most of their leaves.

It's new position was well lit, i continued to water well & fertilised when required.

If it had died out right then i could understand that something went wrong and as a result it had died.
What i don't understand is that it seemed like it was dying? Then stopped but just never recovered, never grew back its leaves etc.

It lost most of it's foliage over a year ago & nothing has really changed with the tree since.

So does anyone know what's going on with my 名媛直播? I would love to have it be able to regrow it's leaves and look healthy again.
I've attaches some images to show more clearly what i'm talking about...

Thanks in advance!!!
Kyle

Hi.
I tried to look at it but all I can see is the dirty window covered in mold.
If I had to live there, part of me would probably die too.

Now to give you some input anyway - there might be several reasons why part of the tree died.
Changing it?s location, dry/very wet substrate --- I would slip pot it into pot with drainage holes - wash the roots and use modern substrate that doesn?t hold too much water. I would cut off the dead parts too. But don?t cut any roots.
Then you?ll see how it goes from there.
Good luck.

Seems to me the complete graft died - though it still seems to have a leaf ?

most of the larger graft is definitely dead... but there is a new leaf growing out of part of it... the smaller graft looks to be in better shape...
