Help with my Gmelina Philippensis (parrots beak)

I got my first Gmelina Philippensis(parrots beak) last week and potted it and all the leaves fell off, is this an evergreen?...or did I kill it,trying to learn how to load pics on this site!!!???

It IS an evergreen tropical. When you say you potted it, does that mean you RE-potted it? Did you cut any roots?

Unless you live in Miami or somewhere else tropical, this tree needs to be inside.

Whatever the cause of the leaf loss, do not water it until the soil becomes dry. Trees without leaves don't use much water.

thanks

SmokeyJoe,

have you tried just lightly scratching the bark to see if it is still green?

Normally the Gmelina grows so fast, clip and grow works better.

yes its still green,but lost all leaves in only a week

SmokeyJoe,

follow Jim's advice on the watering. Let the group know if and when the leaves re-sprout.
I am not sure how much light is needed though - Jim?
