The Best Kind of Indoor Bonsai TreesBonsai trees are very beautiful works of art and can be manipulated to resemble some animals or figures. These bonsai trees are usually classified as outdoor trees or indoor bonsai trees. The outdoor bonsai can usually stand a cold winter while the indoor bonsai trees usually come from the tropics. Indoor bonsai trees can be beautiful focal points in your house and they can be interesting conversation pieces as well. Recommended Plants for Indoor Bonsai Trees Bigger plants can be used for bonsai planting but there are some that are recommended for beginners because they grow quite easily and do not die as quickly. These indoor bonsai trees are the sago palms, serissa, schefflera, fukien tea, aralias, gardenias, bougainvillea, bush cherry and some types of elms. These are ideal indoor bonsai trees for first time bonsai enthusiasts; some other bonsai trees are better off in the outdoors. These indoor bonsai trees are from the tropical and sub-tropical regions so they will need more of the morning and afternoon sun. Make sure they also have some exposure so that they will grow steadily despite being kept indoors. These types of indoor bonsai trees do not do so well if exposed to the cold during winter since they come from the tropics. Most indoor bonsai trees can be treated pretty much the same way as most houseplants. Just water when their soil feels dry and also expose them to late or early sunlight frequently. Use of fluorescent and incandescent lights could suffice for some indoor bonsai trees. Bonsai need to be re-potted at least every two years, usually around spring. Roots need to be pruned during repotting to keep the bonsai relatively small. The new pot will need to have the same drainage holes as the old one, or you can repot it in the old one if you want. Drainage is needed to keep the roots from water rot. The indoor bonsai tree itself will need pruning and pinching to keep its original shape. These are usually done during and throughout spring to keep the trees growth in check. |
