Carmona leaves yellowing and dropping was created by rylan

Posted 4 years 1 month ago #64171
I bought a Carmona 名媛直播 tree about a week ago, since the time it's come it's leaves are yellowing and dropping everyday. It's kept on my window sill and receives indirect sunlight during the day. I water it when the soil seems dry to touch (about once in 2 days since it's winter) . The soil doesn't seem waterlogged and drains well. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong or not doing at all. Temperatures in winter here are between 25 and 30. Please help.

... between 25- 30.. these are summer temperatures....
Trees are not made to be inside.. contrary to what the label says there is no such thing as an indoor tree. 99% of the " help my tree is dying" questions here are from people with "inside" trees. Again ,contrary to what the "general " believe is, tropical species ( like the carmona) do not do well inside our dry homes. To thrive they need moisture, wind, loads of light and high temperatures. People tend to place their trees on a windowsill, which means cold at one side ( the window), and dry heat coming from the heating below and not enough light. So, at best they struggle to keep alive, most just die.

Here's a pic too, the bonsai tree is shedding leaves everyday and it's getting me a bit worried about it.

I suspect the 25 and 30 here are Fahrenheit so they are below freezing.

That was neigther helpful for op or neccesary.

Rylan: I am so sorry. But putting the tree outside in freezing temperature most likelly killed that allready weak tree.

This is a international forum where the international more widespread Celsius is used. However that should not be used to create obvious missunderstandings.

...seeing the plants he keeps outside i tend to disagree, those cacti would be long dead with below freezing temps.

This is not a cacti forum, but Most of the species do well in light frost as long as they are totally dry. But the south african succulent in red pot is different, cannot stand any freezing temperature.

So, I Think you are right. My best guess right now is that op is in India and using Celsius. Sorry about my last post.

Op: can you tell us your location and unit oftemperature?
