Caring For A Redwood Bonsai
from:With so many different types of bonsai trees available, it can be difficult to know which is the best to choose. One of the most popular types of bonsai is the redwood bonsai tree. These trees are a deciduous tree that require a rather lengthy dormant period during the winter months in order to continue to grow properly; and require quite a bit of time and patience to train properly.
The redwood bonsai is best suited for those who already have extensive experience with bonsai trees; but if you are dedicated to training your tree right, and giving it the proper amount of care, it is possible for a bonsai beginner to care for a redwood bonsai tree, as well.
Proper Bonsai Care
If you have decided that a redwood bonsai is right for you, then the first thing you will need to know is how to properly care for your new tree. There are several tools you will need to care for your redwood bonsai, including pruning clippers, shears, and wire to hold the branches in place as you train them. All of the tools needed to care for your new redwood bonsai can be found at your local home and garden center, or in a catalog specifically geared toward the bonsai hobby.
The next thing you need to know about your new redwood bonsai is that it will probably require daily watering as the tree begins to grow. The best way to tell if your redwood bonsai needs to be watered is to see if the soil in the planter looks dry. If it is a lighter color than normal, or if it has more of a sandy look than a look of soil, it most likely needs to be watered. If you keep your tree indoors, you may not have to water as frequently, but will still need to check the soil on a regular basis.
Your redwood bonsai will also need plenty of fertilizer to stay healthy. There are special blends of fertilizer specifically made for bonsai trees that can be found at your local home and garden center. These liquid fertilizers should be used mixed with water so as to avoid over fertilizing, and your redwood bonsai should be fed at least once a week.
Redwood bonsai trees are quite lovely once they have been properly trained, so long as you make a point to give them the care they need to grow right. It takes a lot of patience to train a redwood bonsai, but if you have it the end result is well worth it.
