My 名媛直播 is Dying was created by Brown Thumb

Posted 8 years 5 months ago #23647
I have a eight year old juniper bonsai for about 2 months and I've been leaving it outside in direct sunlight. I watered the tree every week; however, its foliage has faded and the tips of the leaves turned yellow. When I touch the leaves, the pines fall out. I live in California, so the sun is pretty intense. I'm a beginner bonsai owner. I'll never make the mistake of putting my bonsai in direct sunlight ever again. I would like to know how to possibly revive or heal my bonsai. I will NOT take dead for an answer. Currently, my bonsai has been moved indoors in a mildly lighted area. Is there a specific location I should put my bonsai or fertilizer I could use? Should I prune the tree? Should I repot my bonsai? How should I take care of my tree henceforth? Every single advice on reviving a bonsai is thoroughly appreciated.

Take it outside, learn how to water it and fertilise with any fertiliser you have (tomato fertiliser works fine). Don't do anything else to the tree.
I would also recommend that you look up proper care and watering guidelines on this website.

Oh, and it might already be dead. Junipers don't really show damage like dropping leaves until after they die.

Thank you for your replies; however, I really want to know how to save my tree. I know my tree isn't completely dead because the bark underneath is still green. The pines are still flexible. It dying but not dead. Should I prune or cut off dead branches? Should I continue to give it sunlight? The sunlight outside is intense, but I could move it inside in a lighted area. Which fertilizer should I use? Can it still photosynthesize with these leaves? Should I use a or ? I'm willing to take drastic measures to save my tree. I will definitely take better care of my trees henceforth.

Ok, mybe if the third person tells you it is dead you will believe it?
It is dead. Toss it in the bin. Junipers do not miraculously start growing again once where it is now.
It may very well have been dead already when you bought it.

If you really watered once a week, it wasn't the sun that killed it.
