I'm relatively new to the world of bonsai and was just given this tree by an elderly gentleman that is going into a home where there is no room for his trees.
Unfortunately it had already started to turn brown at the ends of the leaves and he had no idea of the reason nor of the appropriate treatment to save it. I'm hoping that someone here can help out.

Thanks,

Auch; Usually, when foliage starts to look like this, extensive damage has been done. Root trouble, most likely.
I would not hoold high hopes of recovery. Check the roots (Healthy brown or dirty black). Perhaps an emergycy repot (No root trimming, only removal of riotting areas, repotting i alrger pot with coarse substrate) might be a solution in that case.
If you have no experience yourself, find a local club and ask for hands-on assistence.
