Taking Care Of Your Juniper BonsaiJunipers have many species to choose from for the bonsai tree. Most of the juniper species can adapt well to being a bonsai tree. Some of the more common juniper species being made into bonsais are Shimpaku, Japanese Garden Juniper, Green Mound, Chinese Juniper, Sargents, Needle and many more. These beautiful trees can be placed indoors and outdoors as decorations for your house or your garden. Caring for your Juniper Bonsai The primary thing to remember about juniper bonsai trees is that they need dormancy during the winter months. Dormancy is like a hibernation or rest period that most trees of this kind need in order to recharge for the coming spring and summer. Juniper bonsai plants are also the same as their bigger brothers and sisters, they also need dormancy. To let them achieve dormancy, juniper bonsai trees need to be exposed to moderate cold weather for them to start their hibernation. Juniper bonsai trees like to feel dried out in between watering periods. This means you can water them just once a day depending on the dampness of the soil in the pot. It is not a good idea to let your bonsai totally dry out frequently. Dryness can stress plants and eventually kill them. Juniper bonsai trees enjoy low intensity light compared to the direct noon time sun. If your plant is constantly kept indoors, you might like to position it in a way that it catches either the early morning sun or the late afternoon sun. Junipers might also need a humidity tray once they are kept indoors. Place your juniper bonsai on a humidity tray for this. The above mentioned tips to growing your juniper bonsai properly may help your plant live healthily and robustly in order for a good showing. Bonsai plants are all about he aesthetic value and junipers make really beautiful bonsais. You just need to maintain them well and take care of their specific needs during the winter months. |
