Hello everyone,

My friend has gifted me a zelvoka (he said it is a zelkova, i don't know if it is not). Especially its leaves are looking unhealthy and weak. When i touch, it can easily drop leaves. In attachment i have upload some photos of my little baby. Can you please show me a way to keep it healthy and tell me what is the main problem?

Thank you so much!

It looks extremely dry firstly, secondly the main problem is it is inside, I assume that is where you have it.

Thanks for your answer. Is this an outdoor plant or indoor one? Nowadays the weather is extremely cold outside (below zero celsius) and i cannot put it outside.

double post...

There's no such thing as an indoor tree.

It's not a Zelkova. Looking at the shape of the leaves i think i's a Carmona. That means that indeed it cannot be outdoors now.

That purple maple in your avatar... I hope you know that's a scam? I know seeds for purple maples are sold on line, but purple maples do not exist. The image is photoshopped.

Yes i know. It is just an avatar. Thanks for your support.

Dear all,

Is there any other comment about this plant? Still it is dropping its leaves and i don't know what to do except watering.

Is that an office on the photo? That's just about the worst environment for a plant, in general.
