Growing bonsai trees is a delicate art that requires patience and the right supplies. If you’re interested in trying your hand at this rewarding hobby, but aren’t sure where to begin, a bonsai starter kit may be the perfect solution.
Bonsai starter kits are pre-packaged sets of tools and supplies that include everything you need to get started. They typically include a pot, wire for shaping branches, and pruning shears. Some even include a book that gives you the basics of the art. They also often include a fertilizer specifically formulated for bonsai plants, which is an important item that some cheaper kits don’t include.
Most kits come with a tree of some kind, and some even include seeds that you can grow yourself. The most popular options are Juniper and Jade trees, as they are relatively easy to care for and forgiving during your first few years as a bonsai enthusiast. Other easier trees to start with are the Fukien tea, Hawaiian umbrella, and sweet plum.
The best bonsai starter kits will also include a humidity tray, training wire, and the soil and decorative rock to plant your tree in. The tray will help to keep the moisture in the air around the tree, which is crucial for successful growth and shaping. The kit should also include shears that are suitable for trimming your tree, as well as a set of bonsai pruning instructions.
