Willow Leaf Fig - LOSING ALL LEAVES

10 years ago

Hey guys! No pictures here this time.

A one year old, 8 inch tall willow leaf fig I just brought home a week ago is losing all of her little leaves. I named her Banana because her leaves look like bananas lol.


Anyway, I'm new to this kind of tree. I've read that this is normal when moved to a new location. She's been repotted since she's been brought home. She had no root rot, and her roots looked very well. I've planted her in a bonsai soil and placed rocks ontop. I spray the rocks and her about once a day to keep moisture in the air. There is also a 6k grow-light above her. So she is getting ample light, an my house is kept at 76 degrees.


There is a lot of new growth at the top, budding for new leaves trying to occur! In the meantime, its like she's shedding all of the old leaves. I've never had a tree that's done this... pointers? O_o
