I received a natal plum as a gift at the end of May 2007. It was kept inside for about one month in a well lit area and seemed to be doing fine, though it lost a couple of leaves. I have since moved to E.Tx., and the plant has started dying. It has been kept inside in an extremely well lit room, but the leaves have all lost their dark, waxy green look. I put it outside, but that seemed to make it worse. A couple of the twigs of new growth became droopy last week. The soil seems to be moist enough (it's in bonsai soil), so I don't know what's going on.

I know the general advice is to put these trees outside, but it has reached triple digits this week, so I don't know if it could take that kind of heat.

Any help appreciated.
