No direct sun and they always look underwatered. If you do, maybe advise them to move the bonsai to a better area where there receive better sun and water. I’ve always cringed when I see them there, especially when I see how way over priced they are.
I do work in a big green shed. It kills me that they don't look after the bonsai well enough. I generally on buy bonsai from work, because as you say, they are severely overpriced for what they are -- even with team discount. I do however rescue plants from time to time. That's how I got my last JBP.
I'm not going to give up on it just yet, though. I will try using Confidor as suggested by Shibui.
I know this is not the right time to do it, but would it be reasonable to cut branches that are most affected, 1) to rid the tree of the worst of the infestation; 2) it will allow the tree to focus energy on a smaller area.
If the consensus is to throw the plant out, it couldn't hurt to trim it back, right?
