I had a Fukien tea that I also struggled with. It lost all leaves on 3 occasions and I had to nurse it back to health. The first time was aphids. Look for small bumps on the leaves. The second time was scales. If you have ants on the tree, they are actually farming the scales and that will kill your tree! Both times I was able to treat the tree with a water and oil solution spray to recover. The final time was after I left town and a fluke freeze hit. I had the tree outside for sun, and this killed my tree. I am a beginner with bonsai so try an easier tree than a Fukien Tea! That's what I am looking to do with a juniper until I get better at bonsai tree care. I had a Fukien tea that I also struggled with.

I have a ton of acorns worn my oak leaves and they bang around some before falling through. I'm betting they shorten the cord life but don't hurt the machine that I can tell

Here in PA we've had some very heavy rains and it held up just fine. Last year during Sandy a tree fell down in the back yard. We had to work for 45 minutes to move it away from the door. The light stayed lit thru the entire time in the middle of the storm. I'd say it works great in a heavy rain. No it did not come up for the rain only when we walked out into the back yard.

mine both lost their leaves even though I had them over a year, then the got new ones last fall, then lost them again for winter. Now they are both fully leafed out and growing like crazy. Even if you think it's dead, it's probably not!

I used it in spring when tree first got leaves and when it was not raining alot. I wanted tree to absorb as much as it would. I have also used it this fall. It seems to have helped some. This is the first year i have used it though.

My tree is now all brown and brittle. Don't know why. For several months it was growing fine and had visible new growth. Then it just stopped growing and everything turned brown, within a few days. Startling. I was advised to try putting it outside but I didn't see any improvement. Then the weather starting getting cold so I brought it back inside. I was also advised that this is really an outside plant. I would not recommend it for an office. Even in a house with the windows open and good sunlight and good humidity, mine didn't make it. Still am taking care of it. But my hope is waning that there will be a comeback. The Winter in Minnesota was not a factor. My tree is now all brown and brittle. Don't know why.

All my leaves fell off and I did everything I could to take care of it. Very disappointed in this tree.

Wish I could help; my papaya tree looked great when I got it, then day by day it started to shrivel up until it died completely. It was packaged well but maybe the cold got to it? Don't know but I was greatly disappointed.

I keep my bonsai on the kitchen table, which has a southern exposure, year round. It lost a lot of leaves in early winter, but was never void of leaves. In late winter new growth started and continued into the spring. I watered it regularly including leaving it in a humidity tray. Been successful to date.

I don't know. Do you know if after the tree spending the winter outdoors will it come back ?

Sure you take take branches off as that's how it is shipped originally . Question is why would you want to? It's not a holiday tree . I put mine outdoors at my cabin and it looks like it's actually planted . Get a tonne of compliments. A year round tree which the blossoms don't fall off. My opinion this tree is too heavy looking to have as indoor tree.

I really wish I could help, but a tree fell on my home in April and I'm currently living in an apartment and everything is in storage while my home is being rebuilt and I don't have the container anymore. Hopefully someone else will be able to give you the information. Good luck!

I did not. I live at the shore and have them in an outside shower. It has been outside all Winter in the ice and snow and is weathering nicely. I look the look of aged teak and have no intention of treating it even down the road.

I did not get mine in the cold but I do know that I loved my little tree and yes the pot I thought was to small so I called eves and they told me to trim the roots till it fits and that worked. My only problem was after 6 to 7 months I forgot to water it for close to a week and it died. I am going to get another tree strait from them since I still have the kit

The leaves will need to be kept else where. Also, when you remove the leaves you can see the hardware under the table where the leaves attach.
