Care:
Light: Bonsai prefer a bright spot indoors.
Watering: Consistency is key. Bonsai like moist (not wet) soil. Use the ‘touch test’ to see how dry the soil of your plant is: Scratch up the top inch of the soil – if it is dry, it’s time to water. Don’t overwater bonsai; too much water will make the roots drown and die.
Feeding: Fertilise once or twice during the spring and summer months with an all purpose indoor plant food.
Pruning: Bonsai requires occasional pruning to keep its attractive shape, maintain health and discourage it from outgrowing its container. Spring is the best time to trim your bonsai. You prune bonsai in two ways -by clipping and shaping their tops (leaves and branches) and clipping and removing some roots.
