Hi guys!
This is my first post, im hoping that it works with the pictures and stuff....
I just came home from holidays and it seems like my Bonsai-caretaker didnt do a great job...
Can you tell me, if my bonsai is gonna make it? If so, what can i do to get up the chances?
I repotted it, the roots look ok. The soil was very wet, when i came home.

Thanks in advance!

I can see some alive roots there, but quite wet.
Did you barefooted with a spray of water?
It may come back, even being fall.

Thanks for your reply! What do you mean ,,barefooted with a spray of water"? I took it out of the pot then rinsed the roots carefully with water, if thats what u mean. I put it back into new soil with a tiny bit of water, now im going to wait until the soil is completely dry before watering now. I probably should stop fertilizing now, eventhough its still almost 25 °C here in Germany, right?

correct, do not fertilize, let the tree recover.

Awesome, thanks for your prompt help! Now would u advise me to remove the very dry leaves, or just leave them on the tree?

If you want, they'll fall off soon enough.
