1 year old tree - tips please! was created by Dominicgc_

Hi all!

I got my Bonsai tree in December 2017 and to date have had no problems at all. However, in recent weeks it has started to not look as healthy and I’m wondering if it’s the time of year? Or if I’m doing anything wrong?

Any tips would be greatly appreciated, I’m new to this

Welcome to the empire.

As for your plant. Which species do you have? Where do you keep it? How do you care for it?

Thanks for the welcome!

I believe it’s a Chinese elm but I may be wrong - are you able to see the photos in my original post?

The tree is kept under a row of ceiling windows in a large room, although not in direct sunlight.

Caring for it goes as far as ensuring it is watered when it needs to be really. Should I be doing more?

Must admit, to date, I have cared for it nonchalantly but keen to step it up now
