Dead Bonsai - My Bonsai's in need of help :(
Posted: Mon Aug 01, 2005 8:04 pm
Hey all... I just found this site and figured I'd give it a try.. hopefully some sound body will read this and offer assistance....
I got a bonsai tree as a friendship gift from a friend a few months ago...5 to be exact. It was very pretty. I went online to see how to maintain it. Some site said water it every 3 days, keep in sunlight. I did this.
Now I live in NY. It was cold at first and then hot as heck. I kep the tree, in the glass pot it came in, on top of the fridge by the window so it could get light from outside. Well it started turning yellow (like the trees in the fall). I went online again and looked up another site. Water every day and change the pot because it might be too small for the roots.... I did this (watered it every 3 days though - didnt want to over water it.. well it is now completely yellow. WHAT DO I DO?
my friend is going to kill me. she said if it dies that our friendship.. oh boy.. I cant even buy another one and replace it because this one has a branch that hangs to one side and she'll know the difference..
help......
dying bonsai in the bronx... lol
