Proper care of Bonsais - Doctor Needed!
It had been far too late to call in the bonsai doctor. My dwarf juniper is dead. I'm now trying again with a second bonsai but have now ensured I know the easy tips required for proper care of bonsai trees. Who'd have thought, if the leaves on my tree began turning brown, it wasn't a lack of water, but an over abundance. However was only creating a level bigger problem. A Juniper likes dry soil. I was drowning the indegent thing.
Bonsais can be created from your countless variety of trees and each different type prefers quite different care. Make certain, when you purchase your tree, you may well ask what type then it is you will be able to ascertain precisely what conditions it prefers. It will then be considered a not at all hard matter of deciding on the best environment to maintain your plant happy and healthy. Some, like my juniper, thrive in almost drought conditions, others like damp soil.
Bonsais can be kept with your house or perhaps in a pleasant spot within your garden or in your patio - Outdoor plants do not always thrive well when brought indoors since the temperature and level of light they receive may not be suitable. It is often best if you mist your indoor bonsai with water as much like a humid atmosphere. Again - what suits one plant may well not suit another, and that's why it is critical to understand the name of one's particular tree.
While watering is vital for the proper care of bonsais, also is the kind of soil. Again it is important to know what form of tree you've got so you can ensure it's potted inside the right soil and know you're feeding it the best kind of fertilizer at the correct time.
In most cases, it's advocated a mixture of around Thirty percent sandy grit and 70 % humus for deciduous trees and vice verse for evergreen needle plants. Hopefully, if you've bought your plant from the specialist or garden shop they've got the soil mix right. It will pay to check, however, as staff in a few non-specialty stores may know less in regards to the care of bonsais than you.
Bonsais generally need to be re-potted every two to five years. Again it pays to get top tips on the pot size and soil. Re-potting can be the time to do your root and branch pruning. This is where your artistic flair concerns the fore. Regular pruning for the care of bonsais can be achieved through pinching off new growth with your thumb and forefinger.
Wire and pruning may be used to encourage your bonsai to grow into the desired, artistic shape. I didnrrrt find out all of this information before it was far too late in order to save my first bonsai. However I will have the right knowledge to ensure my replacement tree will not suffer the same fate.
