Ficus dropping all its leaves
I acquired a narrow leaf ficus (Ficus nerifolia) a few month ago and repotted the tree after somewhat vigorus root prunning into a smaler and shallow pot. The treet appeared OK for a few weeks but now its laeves are turning yellow and dropping. There is some new growth coming out but not enough to recover the bald areas of the tree crown. I am giving it plenty of light and Iam not too generous with water as required for this species. Is there hope for this poor fella?
