PLANT CARE Bonsai

Display your bonsai in a spot that gets a good amount of bright, indirect light. Keep its soil moist to dry, watering it every 2-3 days from the bottom by submerging its planter in water (just to the top of the soil) to allow its roots to absorb water for about 15 minutes.

Pinch off or prune new growth (avoiding any flowering buds) to help it maintain its shape, and “root prune” your bonsai once a year in late winter by gently taking it out of its planter and trimming about a third of its roots. Fertilize it monthly when it is actively growing new buds or leaves.
