1. I am keeping the tree inside. (unfortunately)
2. I believe the tree is deciduous.
3. I bought it from a local nursery.
4. The soil is medium sized fir bark. It doesn't have any stones in it, but the water can go through easily. I water it 2-3 times per week and I mist it maybe 4-5.

You're absolutely right about "the last thing I want to do" but up until last week, it still had leaves on it and seemed to be doing alright. This all happened within the last couple days where I have worried about the state of the tree.

After scratching the bark, it is a yellowish green so I think that it's still alive under there.
