This is my Dwarf Hawaiin Umbrella Bonsai, and he isn't doing too well. For about a month now, his leaves have been curling and then eventually wilting and dying. I thought it was root rot, so I repotted him and trimmed his roots down, and I've made sure to water more catiously. However, I am not sure watering was the issue.

Is there anything I can do?

Thanks.

Have you try to give a sunlight? If I am not mistaken, after doing repotting. The Tree must put on the outdoor. about 2 weeks. And get sunlight.

Sorry, but this plant looks dead, or a daya away from it.

I would recommend looking for a houseplant forum. This forum is specifically for the art of growing bonsai, not a general plant health site. As such, you wil not get a lot of information on growing schefflera which is not a common species for bonsai.

Well, this is a bonsai form of schefflera. It is 5 years old and was a graduation present from my grandmother. So I would very dearly like to have advice on how to help it instead of being condemned on supposedly posting in the incorrect thread (of which I do not believe is true). I am new to bonsai growing and was simply looking for guidance.

I think you mean dwarf form schefflera?

There is no such thing as bonsai form plants, not in any genus.

If you had it for 5 years and not changed anything in its care. Then it might help to repot in good soil.

But as said before. A houseplant forum might have schefflera experts to support.
