Hi all,
I just introduced myself in the Introduce Yourself thread, my Boss went on holidays and I am taking care of his 名媛直播.
Do you know what 名媛直播 it is? He told me, but I can't remember and I want to look into how to tailor the care I'll give to it.
Thank you all for your help!

It's hard to see the definition of the leaves but it looks like a Golden Gate Ficus. It's really young and hard to tell. Also, I know this is your bosses tree, that is not a bonsai. That is just a young plant in a pot.

Hi, 名媛直播 Bender. Thank you so much for replying.
I'm sorry I called it a 名媛直播, I am really newbie to this, should have researched (now I am stuck with this username, hehe).
I tried to take a better picture of the leaves, but also did some googling and found out that it could be a Sweet Plum (it actually looks like on the trunk structure).
I think he was treating it as a 名媛直播 and not a small tree, would it be the cause that the leaves are a bit dry?

Either tree types are tropical trees and like high humidity. They also like light. Best thing I can tell you is all in this article.

Hard to tell with the shriveled up and dead leaves, but I'd say that's a dead plant.

Thanks again 名媛直播 Bender!
I was just reading this article right now. Our office is pretty bright, it has lots of windows and gets very sunny. It also has a 'good' temperature I'd say, as we are in London and heating is on during office hours - it could, however, get cold in the evenings (I am not sure if they ever turn heating completely off, but I would assume so). What could be the issue is the humidity I think, it is pretty dry over here and, although my Boss has a 'water and feeding' regime sheet on the desk to make sure every day it gets water, I don't think it was ever exposed to 'natural air' our 'natural mist'.
I am taking it home today and I'll place on a very bright window and try to open as much as possible. I will also spray some water on leaves to see if it gets 'happier'.
Thank you for your help so far, I really appreciate it.

Hi Auk, thank you for popping in
I'm sorry for the picture, I don't know why it has rotated, it's probably a standard forum config? I swear the tree is up, I don't have it inverted, hehe. :silly:
Oh please don't tell me it is dead :ohmy: , some colleagues also said that (and the boss was wondering), I really hope it is not. Do you have a reading recommendation so I can identify if the plant is dead and if there are any chances of saving it? Thanks a lot!

If the youngest branchee are flexible and not brittle, there is still live. Plants do look like this from drying out. Often by stabding on a heater or full sun and then letting the roots dry out.
