I recently repotted my two 1-year old bonsais. One seems to be doing fine, while the other has started dropping branches!
It has lost 5 branches this week!!!
I am stressing out because I have done everything I can to keep these alive and I'm not ready for them to die yet!
Please send help!
I trimmed the roots back, as the instructional videos recommended.
its still cold outside but I have a humidifier and grow lights.

Note your tree does not have branches. All what you see are leaves.

No real stress at the moment needed I think.

Looks like Jacaranda.
Yes, they lose leaves easily.
They are tropicals, so....
Plenty of light and warm weather.

The stems the leaves are on keep falling off. I used to have stems all the way down the tree and now it looks like this:

The 2nd picture is what it used to look like.

Well.. It is still alive. And assuming you are on the nothern hemisphere, summer is coming up.

I will repeat what I said before though. Those are not branches or stems. The whole thing is the leaf.
