What do I need to know before buying a bonsai tree?
Before you purchase your first bonsai tree it’s important to know if the tree you’re looking to buy is indoor or outdoor. While most indoor trees will survive outdoors in the summer months, outdoor trees struggle if placed in a closed environment.
Another thing to pay attention to is the care requirements of the tree. Does it need direct sunlight or partial shade? How often does your tree need to be watered? Knowing those details will help you take care of your bonsai properly and watch it flourish.
Lastly, for the inexperienced gardeners, it’s also important to know how much maintenance a bonsai tree needs. Certain tree species require more regular pruning than others. If you want a low maintenance tree, you should look for a bonsai that is already styled and established. This means you won’t need to do drastic pruning or shaping.
