How Do You Care For Juniper Bonsai Trees?
The ancient art of Bonsai, once reserved for the upper echelon of Japanese society, is a practice that is gaining popularity among gardeners throughout the world. It is not simply another plant, however, and will demand almost as much time and effort as caring for a pet. Junipers are among the best choices for beginners as they need less care than other varieties. Below are some basics that the beginner needs to know. Both over watering and under watering can severely damage your tree. The easiest method for Junipers is to place another tray underneath the potting tray and simply fill it up whenever it is dry. You can also use a traditional watering can or a mister. If you use a watering can or mister, be careful not to irrigate the leaves too much, as this will damage them. Pay close attention to watering, since Junipers like full sun, they will need extra water in the hotter months and also when the tree is growing in spring. They can consume a great amount of water during these time
