well i was in the hospital from 2 dec till 25 dec, and came home to see my 1 new brush cherry in critical condition

i did a quick watering, and have been misting the leaves, but they seem to have dried up. the trunk still has green under the bark, but all the new growth has died off.
i need to bag her, and get her on some heat in hops she decides to back bud. i hope she back buds anyhow. i'm very depressed over this. she was my tree for the next BOTM. not now
i took off as many leaves as i could, but still need to prun off the dead wood. i gotta get some elmers glue to use as cut paste. the real bonsai paste is way to hard to use on the tiny branches, or should i just leave some of the dead wood to seal it? i'll post pics tomorrow.
