Care & Maintenance

SHORT GUIDE

Watering

In warm weather check the compost daily and water once the surface feels dry. Raise humidity for indoor specimens; alter watering routines seasonally for outdoor trees.

Light

Indoor varieties thrive in bright, filtered light — add grow lights where natural light is weak. Outdoor species range from full sun to partial shade depending on the cultivar.

Feeding

Use a balanced bonsai fertiliser during active growth to support foliage and root and overall vigour; reduce or stop feeding during dormancy.

Pruning & Wiring

Trim regularly to preserve shape and encourage ramification. Wiring is a specialist skill — apply gently and remove before wires bite, or join a workshop for hands‑on help.

Repotting

Re‑pot every 2–5 years according to vigour and root development, using a suitable, free‑draining bonsai soil mix and fresh nutrients.

Pests & Diseases

Inspect often for scale, aphids, mites and fungal spots. Treat promptly with appropriate horticultural products and remove affected material to prevent spread.
