Poorly Serissa
Hi, I bought a Serissa from work around October and I read a whole book on bonsai and hope I picked a good one. It was doing great until November when I went on holiday for just less then a week. I was very silly and gave it extra water as I knew I couldnt get anyone else to look after it properly. I get back off holiday and its looking a bit poorly. So I read up on watering it and always check the soil to make sure im watering it when it needs it. But my poor bonsai tree seems to be getting worse. I live in england and I think its too cold to place it outside so it lives near my windowsill until its a bit wamer. Please help me, I have bonsai food i feed it every 3 - 4 weeks and I tried pruning off the bare branches back to fresh growth to get rid of the dead twiggy parts but it seems to be getting worse! I've attached a picture.
One other thing ive noticed, it hasnt flowered since november but Ive noticed this little furry white things, are they flowers? Mold? Some sort of weird life form?
