My Bonsai isn’t looking well :-(
kathiemt on Apr 19th 2008
I rang my plant doctor – a friend who has a nurseryman background and who also gave me my Bonsai for my 50th the year before last.
It’s not looking well and I don’t know what’s wrong with it. It’s not been burnt from the sun as the leaves aren’t turning brown from the top down, but are turning brown from the bottom up. It is being watered regularly but not sitting in water all day long.
It gets the morning sun but not the hot afternoon sun. It is sheltered from most of the wind.
Anyway, guess I’ll wait and see what the ‘doc’ has to say – he did tell me over the phone he’d come and pick it up and nurse it for me for about a month, and repot it as he felt it was probaby due for that. I hope he can nurse it back to health and tell me what I’ve been doing wrong.
Hello Kathie-
Good luck, I will pop back another time to see how it is travelling. 
I really love the layout of your blogs, the styles & colours, they all go together so well.
I haven’t grow a bonsai, so can’t really think what could be causing this, not unless the change in our temperatures has affected the soil?
I have heard people say this about frost, but who knows? Best to leave it with the doctor!
Hi Katie! love this blog ; I have two gardens with flowers and just started to bloom again( my blue-bells and tulips). Here in Romania is spring now.
hope you bonsai is much better now:)
Katie your blog is one of my favorite topics living in San Diego USA and being a true flower and plant lover it was a true breath of fresh air to have come across such a great blog! I have often wondered what it would be like to live in Australia.
Congrats and keep up the great job!
Dear Katie,
As more people say: you’ve got a very nice blog here. Nice photo’s as well. Keep up the good work. Good luck with the Bonsai!
Those are very nice bonsai’s. Nicely maintained and high quality. Congrats!
