I agree with MCPeters. cut off the dead stuff. Spray what is left wit 50% water and 50% rubbing alcohol for 3 days in a row. For spider mites. Spray everything foliade trunk, potn under pot, You will have to this in a regular basis. best to keep in garage for winter if you can.

@Josh Stewart The light I posted above is blue light and my trees are growing like mad. I could not be any happier then I am. The light fixture itself is very lightweight and weighs nothing at all.

No, different size bulbs.

I have no idea on your question. Perhaps this will help: Lantana, Desmodium, Jasmine and Buttonwood are all blooming under the light I posted. Buttonwoods in Colorado should not be bloooming and it should be shivering at this time of year. It is growing so much I have to water it pretty much every day now, no longer then two days. Heat from the lamps heat the room up pretty good! Learned that from David McP.

What kind of Ficus is this? I hope its one of those with the tiny leaves? Are my cascade trees rubbing off on you? I saw you looking at them real hard when you picked up the tables for your workshop!

Here a couple of photos of using Sphagnum moss held down with galvanized metal wire brackets and a New Mexico Privet under going my Moss Growing Technique which was started around 2.5 weeks ago. There are some lichens growing in the moss, which was intentionally done by me.

The moss in my photo (Actually clubs photo) is right from the mountains. All of the moss on my trees are from the mountains. If I remember correctly there are around 275? different types of moss growing in one of the States park. There are numerous different types of moss growing where I go. Not all of them suitable for Bonsai. Moss growing in shade in the mountains is probably not the best moss to use. Pick the moss growing in full sunlight and only moss with nice tight fine texture to it. Leave the more course moss alone. I have been using my technique for years. It matters how you take care of newly established moss a tree to. Not the right care and it dies. By the way, that tree in the photo above has soldiers in the moss. I put a small patch of them growing in some moss on the on purpose.

Sphagnum moss cut up and held in place by galvanized brackets pushed into soil. Nothing hard about growing moss in Colorado. https://rockymtnbonsai.com/index.php/bonsai-basics/moss-information/moss-growing-in-full-sunlight/ This tree was the most touched tree in the show last year. People just had to touch the moss.

I have placed the tree into a Sara Rayner pot the other day. I think the pot goes well with the tree. I am not satisfied with the foliage just yet and plan to tinker some more with it latter this year. I am thinking about removing the "Newer" large deadwood trunk on the upper right of the tree. Newer means that trunk died about 4 years ago. I shortened it back to where it is in the photo.

Toyo Nishiki change colors on you when they bloom. Same tree as above, how cool is that?

Congratulations you have now been assimilated into the Japanese Quince collective and will forever be one of us! Don't let those deer find your new baby either. Ryan Neil spent 12 minutes or so in 2010 saying my idea of a Quince cascade was a waste of time and it should be a clump. He pretty much trashed my idea. Wonder what he would say now? There is nothing wrong with a Quince clump either and I have a few of that style under way.

Hard to say what happened with it. Be prepared for hot weather with it and protect from sun when temps are starting to hit 90. Spider mites are also a problem. Nice trunk on it!
