I am new to bonsai. I am asking you for help with my bonsai that I want to save. I don't know what kind of tree it is, I don't know the name / species. Maybe if it had leaves, I would know something more about it. When I got them, the soil in the pot was very wet, almost the entire top of the ground near the trunk was covered with moss. What did I do to save the tree. I took the tree out of the pot, cleaned the roots from the bottom to the trunk, but left the soil right next to the trunk, only the moss was removed. I put new soil at the bottom of the pot, put the tree in the pot and sprinkled it with new soil. I am asking for advice if what I have done is enough and now I am waiting for the leaves? I'm sending photos of the no name tree. Maybe someone knows what kind of this is?

Hmm. Repotting a tree direct after purshase with no previous experience without knowing the species. How would that save the tree? What was wrong with the old soil?

I cannot tell the species. But If you are in the northern hemisphere it is proboably a deciduous species and needs to be outdoors.

There were worms in the old soil. And as it turned out, there were probably worms in the part of the old soil that I had left behind. I noticed that something was moving in there, like an earthworm

Hey!
It reminds me a Larix, or another similar deciduous, but it's hard to tell with that picture.
If that's the case, and if you are on Northern Hemisphere, might be just dormant... Deciduous trees shed their leaves on autumn/winter and sprout again on spring...

You should watchout your watering on this period, as the plant doesn't consume much water, and not much evaporates either...

Right now I think it just needs time to wake up from dormancy, sunlight and temperature gradients outside plays an important role on their biological clock...

Eartworms are by no means a threat to trees. Actually quite the opposite.

If you by any reason wants to get rid of them anyway. Just put the tree on something organic, like a pile of fallen leafs and let the tree soil dry slightly. They will migrate to better areas for them if provided.

What conditions was the tree kept at before you got it? Indoors or outdoors? If it was kept indoors its a dead tree. If it was kept outdoors it is a deciduous tree in dormancy. Anyway, get it outside right now.

Albas guess on larix is quite possible. Hard to tell by the photo, but I think I can see healthy buds.

Yes, larix is a deciduous conifer.

Wow. Interesting tree. I've already read a little bit about this tree. Various Larix experts. Does he have to be outside when he sleeps in the winter? I moved the sapling to the window sill from a place in the back of the room. In the window more light, cool enough even on this windowsill, but there is also a heater Under the window. I will be careful that larix does not have too warm. Maybe this partial change in soil will not hurt him very much.

Nobody is sure about the species, so please dont draw any Conclusions from qualified guesses.

All decidious trees needs to be outdoors all year round if the growing zone allows it. If the species is not hardy to your area it needs to be kept at 5-10c depending on species. Living room conditions will kill your tree no doubt about it. Decidious trees dont need sunlight in winter.

I am with previous posters who think this could be larch. If you post a picture that is not so heavily compressed & just shows a branch with a few buds, it is likely we can be more certain.

IF this is not a dead tropical species than it needs to be outside. No more fidgeting with it till spring. Put it in a sheltered spot, but outside where it gets light. Keep it to 7c or colder to ensure it stays dormant. Wait for spring.
