How to Care for Bonsai

When you purchase a bonsai starter kit, you’ll receive instructions which detail everything you need to know for successfully growing your very own tree, but we have a few tips and tricks to help you along the way. For starters, we recommend gardeners with little experience begin with our Jacaranda Kit.

Just like other plants, bonsai need the perfect balance of sunlight and water. Position your bonsai out of direct sunlight and regularly check to see if its soil has gone dry, at which point it will require a light watering. As your bonsai grows, we recommend trimming the leaves with microsnips to both maintain shape and encourage more branching for a fuller, healthier tree. Your bonsai will also need repotting every few years as it grows.

Why Starter Kits Make the Perfect Gifts

At Fothergill’s, we understand the pride that comes from seeing a seed sprout into a full-blown flower or vegetable. Gardening is a rewarding and enriching experience, and our starter kits make this joy accessible to those without experience. Anyone can pick up a starter kit and learn the joys of caring for a plant, and that’s why they are the perfect gift for a friend or loved one.
