I started this Bonsai from a young tree purchased in a nursery where I looked
for unique branching and a weeping attitude. I allowed the young seedling to grow for several years before potting into a Bonsai pot. It has been regularly repotted, trimmed, fed and given various levels of sunshine depending on
growth requirements. I’ve aimed for a bushy look, slanting trunk and exposed roots.

This Bonsai grows very rapidly in summer and autumn, then slows down in winter. Spring growth is very slow and requires protection from pests such as sucking insects (thrip and scale). It’s not especially thirsty or hungry,the leaves are green, glossy and small. It makes an ideal Bonsai for anyone needing a low care pet that is harmonious to peace and tranquillity.
