Help with Bonsai tree
 
Hello, I've bought a Bonsai tree a few weeks ago, I have been watering it
every day/ But within the last week it's leaves have become very dry and
crispy. It's becoming Autumn here and is this due to the seasons or somthing
else?

We need to know what KIND of bonsai you have.

Does it have needles (juniper, pine, etc.) or leaves (elm,
Ficus, etc.)?

Where have you been keeping it? Inside? Outside?

All that said it doesn't sound good. Dry and crispy in
September is early for fall.

STOP watering except when the soil feels DRY. Then answer my
questions and we'll see.

Good luck.

I am sorry you are having problems with your tree, but
I suspect you bought one in some sort of shopping mall
and that the rocks are glued down on the top of the
soil.

Your tree may be dead, depending on the variety. Let
us know what kind of tree and whether you are keeping
it in doors our out of doors.
