Hi
Can anyone please help my struggling bonsai olive, unfortunately it has lost about half of its leaves last 2 months. The leaves are curling up dying and dropping off, they are not yellowing, some are going brown and dropping off but some are dropping off when they are still green. I'm not sure if I have under watered definitely not over watered, one branch has lost all its leaves and is brittle at the ends but I have scraped a little bit of the bark back the beginning of the branch and it is still green so I'm not sure if the branch is still alive or not.
I mist everyday but I live in an apartment and the humidity is very low about 40% to 45%, the tree is only about 5 years old which I inherited from my late brother who unfortunately died prematurely last year so I you have strong emotional attachments. I keep the tree in the bay window so it gets enough light, I also have a fig which is about 20 years old and is thriving so I don't really understand. It seemed to start struggling mid-december maybe when the central heating came on, I live in the UK and it's winter.
I have enclosed a few photos, can anyone please help as I am thinking it may be recoverable, hopefully.
Thanks
