Bonsai trees are often seen as high maintenance, but this is not always the case. While they do require more care than your average houseplant, they are not as high maintenance as some people make them out to be. With proper care, bonsai trees can thrive and live for many years.
Bonsai trees are often seen as low maintenance plants, but this is not always the case. While they may not need as much attention as other plants, bonsai still require regular care and attention. watering, fertilizing, pruning, and repotting are all essential to keeping your bonsai healthy and looking its best.
Bonsai are traditionally grown outdoors in areas with specific climates that allow the trees to go through natural seasons of dormancy and growth. However, with the right care, a bonsai can survive indoors. To keep a bonsai alive indoors, you will need to provide it with the proper light, water, and temperature. Place the tree near a south- or west-facing window where it will get at least four hours of direct sunlight each day. Water the bonsai when the top inch of soil is dry, and mist the leaves regularly to increase humidity.
Bonsai are traditionally grown in bright light, but can also tolerate low light conditions. The key is to provide them with enough light to prevent them from becoming etiolated, or stretched out. If you do not have a lot of natural light in your home, you can supplement with artificial light. Place your bonsai near a south-facing window, or under grow lights. Keep in mind that bonsai grown in low light will likely need to be watered more often than those in brighter conditions.

In contrast to the one tree depicted, my tree arrived as two little trees, which left me feeling a little let down. Pictures taken five days after delivery, without any trimming, show extremely little leaf loss and early signs of fresh growth. It's a really robust tree that I believe I can sculpt into a lovely bonsai during the next years. Overall satisfied with my purchase; I would have given it a five-star rating if I had just gotten a single vertical tree, but I might be pleasantly surprised as the tree grows.Edit: I gave my review a five-star rating. The tree is thriving beautifully and seems to be simple to train. I water it every three to four days and have it under a grow light with one bulb. To promote trunk/limb girth and smaller leaf growth, remove the larger leaves and pinch off new leaf growth (where you want it to stop producing longer branches) (smaller leaves give it the appearance of a large tree in miniature).

With this item, both my gardenia bonsai and my Fukien tea are flourishing. After being relocated, they were both feeling a little down and were displaying some yellowing leaves and left drops. On alternate weeks, I gave them a half-strength treatment by immersing the roots in the mixture for about 15 minutes, followed by watering. They were instantly perked up after just two waterings with the Uncle Bill's!

This was mailed to me last week. I let it acclimatise in its original pot for a week before moving it to a larger pot. The palm was transported to the Midwest throughout the winter without incident. The palm looks strong and healthy! This merchant sold me two more palms, which I bought. all top-notch plants. In the future, I would buy from the seller.

When I discovered it wouldn't arrive on the anticipated date because I would be working all day, I tried canceling the purchase because I didn't want it to sit on the front porch in a box for eight hours. I was unable to cancel, it sat on the porch for eight hours before I could open it, and it was so beautifully packaged that it looked fantastic right out of the box.It had a few bugs on it, but I believe they came from sitting outside all day. I was relieved to see two sizable handle holes on the sides that were also used for air. Prior to recently, I had never ordered a plant online, so I wasn't sure what to anticipate. I did my homework when deciding which plant to get from Amazon based on all the reviews, and I discovered that this was the best choice. I wasn't let down.The tree has some brown and white blotches, but I'm hopeful they will fade with time. Providing it doesn't pass away. I haven't had a plant in a very long time, so that's why. I just couldn't keep them going. As a huge supporter of the environment and someone who wants to do their part to help it, I'm aiming to change that with this one. I also hope that this is the beginning of a sizable garden someday.Whatever the case, the photographs clearly show what a remarkable plant it is. The plant arrived in excellent shape, and the packaging was done very professionally. The pot it arrived in is the only thing I have to complain about. Although it has a good appearance, there are no drainage holes. Additionally, the pot itself is significantly smaller than what I perceive to be depicted. It looks excellent in another pot that I purchased online for $14, an 8" self-watering pot. To allow the plant more room to expand, I already planned to buy a slightly bigger pot. According to what I've read, these plants can expand considerably given enough room and time—certainly over a long period of time.It was also my first time repotting the plant. Additionally, they were all attached at the bottoms by a rubberband, which I opted to cut off to make it easier to remove the old dirt and replace it with the new soil and also because I felt that it would hinder the plant's growth.It clearly appears healthier than it did in the first several days. It has spent some time outside of its container and has had access to fresh air and sunlight. The first day I repotted it, though, and I'm hoping I didn't make any mistakes. My room is small, and I share it with a few other people. To ensure that there is adequate airflow, I'll leave my door open throughout the day and run a window fan from the ledge. Room can occasionally seem a little stuffy. I might also need to get a humidifier for my room when winter arrives.I can't say it's not worth it for $32, especially for someone without a car (all about that environment-friendly life, to the best that I can). It arrived a day or two later than expected, but that's not a big thing for a really excellent plant. The packing is really exceptional. Just ship the plants, especially the self-watering ones, in a pot with drainage holes, please. It would just be incredibly wonderful, or at least to have the option to, regardless of whether it costs a little more or a little less.5/5. Again, I really can't express enough how wonderful the packing and delivery were, along with how lovely the plant is. Amazing plant, great company. If it perishes, it will undoubtedly be due to my actions, but I will do everything in my power to prevent that from happening. In addition, five of them are actually entangled, which is very clear when you think about it, but I didn't realize it until I was repotting the plant. Amen to this plant. Buy it. Simply purchase it now to help the business.

Although it took longer than I anticipated, the bare root plants arrived exactly as advertised. They were a little bit smaller than what was advertised, however the seller brought two plants rather than one, so I'm delighted about that. They'll develop.Regarding some of the unfavorable comments, let me say that the reviewer didn't do their research if they assumed they were getting a plant with leaves and blooms. It is clear these are bare roots whether you look through the pictures or read the description.You can see that they have leafed out six months later. Since it's chilly right now, they should be prepared to take off in the spring. When one died, it turned mushy and soft. You may also monitor how well my tiny seedlings from a different vendor are doing. Will they flower in the first year, I wonder?

UPDATE: The seller is really polite for answering so quickly. The answer is as follows: "The new leaves should emerge fairly soon if you keep it in a warm location above 70 degrees Fahrenheit and give it as much sunlight as you can; if not, we will send over a replacement at no charge. In case you have any inquiries, do let us know."REASON (for 1 to 5): The pot, water cavity, soil, and price are all things I adore. As can be seen in the photographs, the tree is budding at the ends but is little burned from below, which is why I gave it a 1 in my initial assessment. I changed to 5, as the seller was so gracious as to offer me suggestions for how to make it better as well as an alternative.FIRST ANALYSIS: Is my tree in trouble? On top of that, I didn't pay close attention to what was underneath the green leaves when I only acquired the tree on Monday with a few dried branches and leaves. It has been turning brown and drying out from the bottom ever since arrival. The images are contained. I can adjust the review's star rating if someone could explain to me whether this is typical.

This is my sixth bonsai of the Brussels brand. The plants are strong and well-cared for (all of them). Additionally, they arrive in excellent packaging and are among the least expensive items for the size you receive. Although I've only had it for a week, I believe it will be simple to care for. My display pot had the tiny fisherman, and it is a lovely pot. However, this is not the best pot in which to keep them. Watering is challenging to do without the stone or soil leaking into the tiny pool of water. However, it does provide the plant a wonderful level of humidity. Apart from this plant that came with the miniature pool and fisherman, the ONLY thing about all of my purchases from Brussels that annoys me is that all of their pots are white or ivory. That is really annoying since I selected out several, all with different pots and colors, and now I have four with all-ivory pots. They look so good in the pots they are promoted in. That really irritates me! Perhaps it's a ploy to persuade you to buy more of their pots? In a few months, I'll revise my evaluation. The Grewia, Dawn Redwood, Dwarf Hinoki Cypress, Forsythia, and Serrisa were the other bonsai I purchased. For images, see those other reviews.

I couldn't be happier with this buy. Before choosing which type of bonsai/company I was going to buy from, I spent two days browsing websites and reading reviews. I also took delivery costs into account. Given my lifestyle, Brussels Bonsai seemed to be the ideal location, and their Fukien Tea seemed to be the ideal bonsai to accompany it (no yard or outside space to have a bonsai, so it had to be indoor-specific). Based on the state when it arrived or dying within the first week or month, many of the reviews were hit or miss (though that could be from lack of knowledge on how to properly take care of the Fukien Tea because though it brags of easy care there is still care that needs to be done—just not extensive). I therefore made the decision to order the Fukien Tea. It was packaged quite well to prevent damage and drying out, and it was arrived two days ahead of schedule. The shipping firm also performed a good job of handling it, which may have contributed to any damage that occurred after delivery and that most customers don't understand was caused by the shipping company, not the retailer they purchased from. The tree arrived in a strong ceramic pot and was quite robust and "bushy". To highlight the trunk's curve and give it a bonsai appearance, I gave it a decent pruning. A Fukien Tea may be easily pruned into the form you choose, and you can do it all year to keep it in shape without having to train new wires. Although it's a great indoor tree, it still needs indirect sunlight (direct sunlight outside can actually hurt the tree), and an LED grow light is more beneficial than simply placing it by a window and hoping for the best. I bought a humidity tray to help maintain good humidity, as that is essential to the Fukien Tea, and an LED grow light to also help promote healthy growth/flowering. I also bought a Ganesh figure from my neighborhood Asian gift shop to decorate with in order to give the space a more "zen" atmosphere. With some basic understanding and additional investigation, this overall worked out quite well for me. I strongly advise reading a few articles on the type of bonsai you're trying to care for to gain a better understanding of how to maintain it flourishing because the directions that came with the tree were somewhat ambiguous.

In the past month, I've ordered three of these azalea bonsai trees. The first two, which I got for my mother and mother-in-law, arrived amazingly. Naturally, I placed my purchase for these in May, during the height of their blooming season. There were several, perhaps even a hundred, buds and at least ten flowers within the boxes, which were labeled "Grown in Mississippi." The packing was also excellent. The tree came in a little bushy, probably to protect the buds, despite the fact that it had definitely been clipped throughout the years. Both have continued to blossom and grow, and so far, they are two of the best gifts I've ever given. I pruned one of them and let my mother prune the other. Even though they came in a cream-colored pot rather than the green one shown, it was still attractive.I got one for myself because I enjoyed the first two so much, but it was unfortunately only about a third as big as the others. It appears to have no old wood or leaves on it and has about eight buds. That it is the five-year-old tree it purports to be is highly dubious. Even though the same vendor was mentioned on each purchase, it came in the green pot rather than the cream one, thus I assume they originated from different producers. I'm disappointed in how small it is because the first two were much finer than this one, even though it might someday become like those.Update: My small bonsai is still flourishing in Alabama seven months after I planted it, and I'm quite satisfied with it. Oddly enough, as of December 2, it is in its second bloom of the year, although it is likely just a result of our climate. Please take note that this tiny plant DOES NEED A LOT OF WATER. I place it in my sink under a small stream of water for at least 10 minutes every other day, and occasionally I'll even leave it under a bit more than a drip, once or twice a week or so. Its appearance and growth are noticeably improved as a result. The bonsai of my mother-in-law is not doing well, but I'm not sure if it is because she doesn't give it enough water or because of the climate in Asheville, North Carolina, where she lives. My mother's bonsai perished from lack of water (she was unable to care for it for more than a week).
Bonsai trees are known for their ability to thrive in small spaces, but can they survive without sunlight? While they can technically survive without sunlight, they will not thrive. Bonsai trees need sunlight to produce food for themselves through photosynthesis. Without sunlight, the leaves of a bonsai tree will begin to turn yellow and eventually drop off. The tree will also stop growing and may even die. If you want your bonsai tree to thrive, make sure it has access to sunlight.
Yes, you can give your bonsai tap water. However, it is best to let the water sit for a day or two so that the chlorine can evaporate.
Yes, you can give bonsai trees tap water, but it's not ideal. The chlorine in tap water can be harmful to bonsai, so it's best to use filtered or distilled water if possible. If you must use tap water, let it sit for a day or two so the chlorine has time to dissipate before watering your bonsai.
Bonsai trees are unique and beautiful works of art. They can be created from almost any type of tree, but some are better suited for bonsai than others. The most important factor in caring for a bonsai tree is watering. Bonsai trees need more water than most other houseplants, but they cannot tolerate sitting in water. The best way to water a bonsai tree is to soak the pot in a sink or bucket of water for a few minutes, then allow the tree to drain thoroughly.
Bonsai trees are often kept outdoors, where they may be subject to infestations from various types of insects. While the insects may be attracted to the trees for different reasons, such as for food or shelter, they can cause damage to the bonsai tree if left unchecked. Some common insects that may infest bonsai trees include aphids, scale, and whiteflies. If you notice any of these insects on your bonsai tree, you should take steps to remove them as soon as possible to prevent further damage.
No, indoor bonsai trees do not lose their leaves in winter. They may lose their leaves if they are not getting enough light, but this is not due to the temperature.
