Bonsai are small, cultivated trees that are grown in miniature. Much of the care for these trees centers around preventing unwanted growth and shaping the tree to your liking. A number of techniques are used for this, including pruning, repotting and the use of wire to train branches in a specific direction.
Like other plants, bonsais can suffer from the same common problems as other houseplants: fungi, parasites, disease and potting issues. Other problems can also arise, such as nutrient deficiencies and overwatering. The good news is that with the right knowledge and technique, you can keep your bonsai plant healthy and beautiful for years to come.
Proper watering is important for all types of plants, and this is especially true for bonsai trees. They need to be watered often, but they should never be left standing in water for long periods of time. Instead, water your bonsai regularly, and let the soil soak up the water quickly before giving it more. Watering as needed is better for bonsais than a strict schedule, and it will help mimic outdoor weather conditions.
Humidity is also essential for a healthy bonsai. If you live in a very dry area, consider placing your bonsai on a humidity tray or a shallow dish of water near the tree to boost moisture levels. You can also try opening a window, or misting the tree with water to increase humidity. This will keep your bonsai hydrated, and it can also stimulate new growth.
