Seasonal Beauty & Natural Elegance
The Larix bonsai tree is renowned for its dramatic seasonal changes. In spring, soft emerald-green needles emerge in delicate clusters. As the year progresses, the foliage deepens before turning a rich golden yellow in autumn. Finally, the tree sheds its needles in winter, revealing its elegant branch structure.
In addition, the trunk displays excellent taper and clean lines, while the root flare adds further character and stability to the overall design.

Feeding:
Apply a balanced bonsai fertiliser weekly during the growing season. Alternatively, use a slow-release fertiliser in early spring.

Prune during the dormant season to shape the tree and remove unwanted growth. Continue light trimming during the growing season to encourage ramification.
