Is your Bonsai tree starting to look a little bit tired? Perhaps you received your Bonsai as a gift or maybe you bought it from a garden centre? The point is, unless you correctly look after your miniature tree then things can go wrong, and all too quickly!

If your Bonsai tree is starting to look past it’s best there are certain things you can do to give it a new lease of life.

It’s a good idea to think about re-potting your Bonsai tree every couple of years or so, and early spring is an ideal time to do this. You will need some good quality potting compost with a mix of grit or sand to help drainage.

Also consider trimming the roots if your Bonsai tree looks really confined and compacted down there. The roots maybe getting too big for the pot, so a quick root haircut can often work wonders. You will obviously need to remove the old soil first to expose the roots. An ideal tool to help you do this is a humble ice-lolly stick.

Like any tree a Bonsai tree is most suited to its natural habitat, and therefore should be outdoors. If your Bonsai tree is located somewhere inside your house, try moving it outside for a while and see if it recovers.

Don’t be afraid to move your Bonsai tree outside during the winter months either. Most trees are dormant at this time and well adjusted to the cold. Just make sure that you pick a well sheltered spot, and ensure that the compost doesn’t freeze.

When it comes to watering your Bonsai tree you need to keep the soil moist all of the time. Never let your tree dry out and never let it get waterlogged. Trapped water will likely rot the root system and kill your Bonsai tree quicker than anything else. Therefore you need to make sure your Bonsai pot or container has enough holes to allow adequate drainage.

Bonsai trees need pruning, so if yours is getting too big, simply cutting the top off will stop it getting any taller. Just make sure you use a sharp pair of scissors or secateurs as you don’t want to cause any infection. Also, this will cause your Bonsai tree to grow new branches and therefore will appear wider and fuller. When pruning branches, always cut back to a bud, any new branch will then follow that route…

Apple Bonsai Tree – A Cool Tree To Have

Posted by admin on Apr 25, 2010 in Uncategorized

bonsai trees

It’s hard to understand and appreciate the beauty of an apple bonsai tree unless you see it. It is so cute as well as beautiful to see those tiny apples hanging off its miniature branches. The apple bonsai tree it so beautiful, that those who grow it, try to keep it away from the eyes of other people, lest their curiosity and admiration will harm it. Some of these owners jealously guard their prize tree from people, while some of the other owners proudly display these trees in their homes for all to see. One thing for sure, the apple bonsai tree definitely makes for one great conversation piece.

How to Properly Grow an Apple Bonsai Tree

To grow a bonsai tree properly, utmost care and precision are required. The bonsai is an art originated by the Chinese but perfected and marketed to the world by the Japanese. While the Chinese are considered exceptional in wisdom and ingenuity, it is the Japanese who have the extreme patience and care, as well as the ability to perfect a task. As a result of this, the art of bonsai it is more attached to the Japanese culture than that of the Chinese culture. Growing a bonsai tree does require a lot of patience, but the rewards are well worth it.

The art of growing an apple bonsai tree is not much different than growing a bonsai tree in general. However, because we now live in an instant gratification society, Western man in his zeal to make things easy on all aspects possible has now brought out the “hybrid” apple bonsai tree. These trees can almost grow all by themselves with the least effort and care. The only thing you have to keep an eye on is to check its growth effectively and to twist its trunk, so that it looks like a miniature version of a tree that grew out in the wild.

The apple bonsai tree is a very sturdy tree that does not require much attention during the winter months. However, since it is kept in shallow pots, there is a real danger of having its roots frosted over. So great care is required to make sure that this doesn’t happen. During the cold winter months it is a good idea to have the trees placed in a warm and protected area.

When the tree is in its growing stage, it will need to be pruned continuously and also changed from one place to a bigger placed as the tree fills its plate. When it finally reaches its desired size, the roots will have to be trimmed on a regular basis, which will ensure that its height gets stunted.

The beauty of the apple bonsai tree is that once the growth is stunted, all the other parts will get stunted too. As a result, the apple bonsai tree will have miniature leaves, miniature flowers and miniature fruits too. It is very cool to watch the miracle of nature unfold right before your very eyes.

Care For Bonsai Tree

bonsai trees

The technique of growing bonsai trees is an old technique which was originated from Japan many years back. This technique is mainly used for decorating the exposed corner of the house. But before growing this tree you need to know some important things in which care for bonsai tree is the most crucial step.

The most important elements which come under consideration here are fertilizers, water and light.

FERTILIZERS:

The soil which surrounds the roots of the bonsai tree is not rich in nutrients. Due to constant watering, the minerals and nutritional particles are washed out. Like all the other trees the bonsai tree need regular supply of food for surviving. Food which is required by the tree is extracted from the soil. For this purpose, it’s important to fertilize the soil on regular basis.

In order to take proper care of bonsai tree, you must know which types of elements are required for its survival. Most important elements which are required for its survival include potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen. The fertilizers which are rich in these 3 mineral contents should be applied. The selection of a particular type of fertilizer may vary according to the species of the bonsai tree.

WATER:

Water is the most essential component which is required by every tree. To take care of bonsai tree, you must water the tree on constant basis. If the tree is not watered for continuous 48 hours it might die within its tub. For identifying the proper time of watering, you need to consider few things.

The most appropriate way of identifying the right time for watering is by judging the soil. You need to consider the inner part of the soil. For that, you have to dig the upper surface of the soil. After digging, if you found that inner surface is moist then it means that you do not need to water it any more. If you found the inner surface dry then you must start watering immediately.

LIGHT

Sun rays are considered as basic necessities of every plant. Bonsai tree is mostly used for the decoration and is kept in a corner of the room. Due to lack of sunlight the tree often become weak and gradually dies.

To take proper care of bonsai tree, you must place your tree in the place where it can consume sunlight for several hours. But you must remember one thing that high temperature and extreme heat of sun is harmful for the bonsai tree. Keep your bonsai tree under some shade where it can consume the necessary amount of sunlight but avoid stark light.
