I have a sick Fukien Tea bonsai. I am noticing a brown fuzz at the base of each leaf cluster. Thought it was natural, but am thinking it may be the reason my bonsai is loosing leaves and dying. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Image attached

I do not know the species, so cannot help you with how normal the hairs are.

I would think it is not the problem though. Typicsaly, problems with these sort of plants are in the area of mis watering, wrong location too little light. It is very rare that people have some odd unknown disease in their plants. SO I would recommend first looking at the general care.

Thanks for your feedback. I’ve had this bonsai for 5 years and it’s been very healthy. I haven’t made any changes. I really think this fuzz is new and I can’t seem to find that it is a normal occurrence.
