I should have elaberated on that a little. I dont believe this pertains to established bonsai. but if growing out seedling for a few years, i believe if you get the leaves wet while the sun is beating down on the tree, the droplets of water will act as a magnifying glass, causing the leaves to burn and drop. There is no harm in just watering the soil, but getting the leaves wet will cause them to burn. Correct?
