Id help (rust?)

Post by Kieranrulz »

Hey guys.
I got this snow maiden from a nursery when I started bonsai. It’s was extremely pot bound and the roots wrapped right around the truck. The leaves looked a little dry and began to yellow and drop. I pruned a fair bit off the worst and just observed and the rest started to go like this. Any help appreciated but I think it might be time to say goodbye as there’s not much going for it. I just wanted to know in case it becomes an issue on anything else. Thanks

It looks like a watering issue to me, but that is just a guess.
You should evaluate your watering methods, how often, quantity, as well as the location of the plant and how much sun it receives.
