Please help I can’t find the needed info online anywhere. I just got this ginseng ficus microcarpa I found at Lowe’s about a week ago or so, it has some lime green-yellowish leaves that drop every so often and a couple had some black/purple/brown spots any ideas as to what the cause could be? The soil is damp to the point it’s the shape of the nursery pot it’s in but otherwise looks healthy to me, roots don’t look rotted. Considering a repot into well draining soil, but same size nursery pot, but I’m a bit worried to do so as I just brought it home and don’t want to over stress it.
Below is a picture of when I got it before removing the fallen and yellow leaves, and giving it a spray of Neem oil.
The second is the black spotted leaves. Is this due to a fungal issue?

Help please ☺️ So… Elmer hung out in a planter that was automatically watered this summer because we were away from home a lot and I didn’t want him to not get enough water… Elmer isn’t so little anymore… do I trim him back now or wait till spring?

Rescued this from Lowe’s clearance rack. We’ll see how it does. Removed crap soil and added better. Never been a fan of these but I figured what the heck for 13.00

I have this umbrella tree bonsai and it was doing really well, and all of the sudden it started to get a bunch of brown leaves. I didn’t change anything in terms of care. Any ideas?

Y’all, I bought bonsai seeds thinking it was a tree. How do I sprout them?

Life is tricky, we all have our peaks and valleys that bring joy and frustration. My wife and I have been discussing our experiences and perspectives of stress and we have learned a lot about each other and ourselves.
Find your peace. You and the people around you will be happier.
Anyway, on to the tree! 😂
This is a mame Tsukumo Cypress and is easily the smallest bonsai I have in my collection.

Have had this for a while but it’s been suffering a little. Any recommendations on how to help it? How much/little to water it?

Just got my first Juniper Bonsai in the mail (already grown) and I’m wanting to style/shape it a little more, any tips or tricks to make it look nice? (Trimming, moving, etc.)

This is my very first bonsais. It's Fukien tea tree. I know nothing about it. I'm trying to learn online. Any and all info would be helpful

I don’t like how bright the sun made the second photo but it was the best I could do 😅
We have a Sawara Cypress, a Monterey Lemon Cypress, and a Dwarf Hinoki Cypress. Although the trees were trimmed, I left them a little on the unkept side to achieve a prehistoric forest theme.
This is far and away from a traditional style or arrangement but it was a ton of fun to make!

This is my first bonsai tree, I haven’t done any pruning yet because I’ve been working on getting him healthy and I think he’s looking pretty good!
Well, technically, I bought this for my boyfriend and I know he wants to be the one to shape him. But now I feel like I have bonded and I’m getting possessive 😂

Repotted & trimmed this Pixie Queen Bougainvillea to get closer to the cascading style I wanted. Really happy with how this one turned out!
