The actual “bonsai” will be created as you prune and shape the plant during early spring to summer months.
You’ll want to educate yourself on bonsai styles and how to apply the wires to the branches properly.
Remember some key factors here…
- Only water the soil when it feels dry. This holds true when the plant is in development as well. Don’t water according to the plant, water according to the soil.
- Never water in the wintertime.
- Keep your bonsai outside 90% of the time away from direct sunlight.
I try to keep mind next to shrubbery where it will receive shade periodically throughout the day.
I found a great article that goes into more detail on the basics of bonsai care here:
Don’t let the url freak you out. It’s an article from a “stress relief” site but the bonsai care tips are very very good.
