Hello everyone.

I am new to this site and am quite new to bonsai growing. I have
recently bought a Banyan fig bonsai tree, I was just wondering do they
actually produce fruit or is it that just its name?

no your banyan won't produce figs... there are many types of fig very
few produce edible fruit

Just bought one to. Put it in my conservatory, not in direct sun, but
full light. A lot of the leaves have started to fall off. They are
turning yellow. What could be the problem?

Hi

The leaves on my banyan fig are doing the same although it is indoors
and it has good light but not directly on the windowsill so it can't be
scorched.

Perhaps it may need re-potting, I am certainly going to do this with
mine as it seems to be dry straight soaking.

Also make sure that u r not over watering (but not letting the soil dry
completely out) as this can cause yellowing of the leaves and wilting.

Also they don't like draughts.

Good luck lol
