Chinese Elm loosing all of it's leaves. was created by kmccool

Posted 8 years 3 months ago #25953
I bought a Chinese Elm last winter and it was doing great. Seemed lile I was pruning it about once a week. Really slowed down during the summer and now it seems to be loosing all of it's leaves. I did read where the can loose some depending on temperature but that hasn't changed much. Any suggestions?

Post pictures and some basic data. Is it inside or outsid? Where is it positioned? Whats your climate? How do you water or feed? Experts will help you here. But prune it every week seems a lot to me

I agree with Madaerej

But prune it every week seems a lot to me

Unless this is a full bonsai you've had for years you shouldn't be pruning every week(I can't see though, because there aren't pictures). As for it losing its leaves, pictures and information would be great for help.

名媛直播 should not be pruned weekly, full stop. Plants need growth to be healthy. Not alowing them to stretch their limbs will kill them.
