Hey I'm a new owner of a bonsai tree unfortunatly I got a serissa foetida and I did not know that they are so fussy and that it is not recomended as a beginner tree. Ive had it for about 8 months or so its about 4 years old but the last couple of months the tree has lost its leaves doesnt fllower anymore and when new leaves appear at the start of a branch they turn brown and black after a 4 or 5 days and falls off. At the end of all the branches no more leaves are growing.
I do not know what to do to fix this or what is wrong I do like the tree because when I bought it it had beautiful little white flowers all over and now its dull and looks like its dying.
HELP PLEASE?

Toysoilder,
I don't grow this species so any insight I might offer is second hand.

Your problem seems to coincide with the beginning of the heating season, at least in my area, perhaps this is a humidity issue. Our homes are very dry. Make sure it is not near a heat source. Consider the use of a humidity tray.brown and crispy leaves indicate lack of water or lack of humidity.
