Caring for Your Bonsai – Ideal for Beginners

As an evergreen, the Chinese Elm maintains its foliage year-round, requiring regular monitoring and watering to sustain its health.

Lighting: Place your Chinese Elm bonsai where it can enjoy plenty of daylight. Don’t forget to shield it from direct sunlight.

Watering: Ensure the soil remains consistently damp. To check, touch the soil and make sure its not wet. During warmer spells, you may need to water more frequently.

Temperature and Humidity: Maintain optimal humidity levels by misting the leaves, particularly during winter when indoor heating can dry the air. Try to keep a consistent temperature and don’t move the tree around or it may keep trying to acclimatise.

Feeding: Support healthy growth by fertilising your Chinese Elm weekly with a balanced, diluted liquid bonsai fertiliser. Another highly recommended product is a Plant Invigorator. This foliar feeds the bonsai and additionally helps prevent pests and disease with the added benefit of being a natural product.

Pruning and Shaping: Pruning tips stimulates ‘back-budding,’ encouraging new growth near the trunk for a dense appearance. Most likely, you will notice your bonsai growing more in spring and summer, with slower growth through autumn and winter.

We include a FREE care guide with every bonsai, giving you tips on caring for your bonsai and reminding you of its unique symbolism. Additionally, enjoy the FREE next-working-day delivery to most areas in the UK.
