Hello All, I appreciate your time. I just recently bought a new tree as is my new years tradition. I purchased it just before christmas, so unfortunately what was supposed to be a 2 day journey turned into 5 and a half. It was green and healthy when it got here, but infested with ants. I did notice a little browning at the back fo the tree but did not think it to be much of an issue. I had to submerge the tree for about 20 minutes in order to kill off the ants, they were getting everywhere. IT has sat for the last 3 days since and over the last two the leaves have started to turn quickly. Some are getting lighter, as others are browning at the ends, then drying up and falling off.
I am not sure if this is due to the shock of leaving the Miami heat for a window sill in Atlanta (kept indoors at the moment, 68 degrees F, but been raining for two weeks straight.), the nearly 6 days it spent in a box, me causing it to start to drown for killing the ants, or some other unforeseen problem. I have a few other trees and have never had this problem. Please check out the photos, Ill iclude some from a last week and today. Any advice would be much appreciated!
*the last two are of today, I had a flashlight on it so the leaves look a little more yellow than they do to the naked eye. When I first got it I watered with organic seaweed-based fertilizer, same as I do my other Bonsais.
