How To Care For A Ficus Bonsai Tree
from:Bonsai care is not easy and there’s no instant gratification with them. They grow very slowly and require very careful, detailed care. When you are growing a ficus bonsai tree, for instance, there are definitely guidelines you need to follow in order to ensure you have a healthy, strong tree for years to come.
About The Ficus Bonsai Tree
A ficus bonsai tree is a naturally tropical plant that grows in Southeast Asian jungles. There are hundreds of species of in this tree family. A ficus bonsai tree’s tiny flowers are enclosed in fruits but when they are grown as a bonsai tree, ficuses do not often flower. These bonsai trees prefer to be grown in full sunlight or partly shaded and they need most, humus-rich soil that s well drained. They also need to be sheltered from cold winds.
Ficus bonsais will produce something called “aerial roots” from their trunks and branches. These are perfect for shaping and trimming for some ficus growers but others may want to trim them off, as they may interfere with the design for their tree. These roots are very brittle at first but if they are allowed access to nutrients they end up very strong. In fact, the ficus bonsai tree is a favorite of bonsai growers who use the “root over rock” style thank to their roots!
The size of a ficus bonsai tree will range in between ˝ inch all the way up to 3 or 4 inches when they reach maturity, depending on the species. Ficus bonsai trees have a reputation for being ferocious eaters. However, they can survive a couple of days without being watered as well, so be careful not to over water them because they’ll try to suck it all up and end up dying because of it. In the spring and summer they need more water than any other time period, but when it’s winter, always make sure to let the soil dry out. They do best in lots of light and they really thrive in temperatures of 59 degrees Fahrenheit to 71 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not move them from one temperature to another suddenly because they don’t tolerate it well. Spray your ficus bonsai tree regularly to maintain good humidity! And one thing you can do to really kick-start your ficus bonsai tree’s growth is to keep it inside during the winter under fluorescent lights.
If you’re willing to properly care for your ficus bonsai tree, soon you’ll have a gorgeous plant!
