Hi, I have a ficus microcarpa ginseng which has been pretty happy until recently. In the last 2 weeks the top section of it has died. Does anyone have any clue as to why? all help would be gratefully received!

Thanks in advance

Welcome McHardy. I cant see it well from this picture but soil looks dry and tree dried. How you water it? How much direct/indirect light it gets daily? Heatrs near the plant?

Also, just for your know, this tree can not be named bonsai. This had been discussed in many other threads so you may search if you want to know better.

Is has probably dried out. Perhaps due to heating and or dry air. Keep the soil slightly moist, wait. Hope it recovers.
