🌞 Bonsai Care Guide

Light:
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some gentle morning sun. For best results, place near a sunny window or in a well-lit room.

Water:
Keep soil consistently moist but never soggy. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry. Proper drainage is essential.

Humidity:
Enjoys moderate humidity. Occasional misting is beneficial, especially in drier environments.

Temperature:
Prefers cooler indoor temperatures. Protect from extreme heat, cold drafts, and frost.

✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

Pruning is key to maintaining the Zelkova’s iconic shape. Trim new growth regularly during the growing season to encourage fine branching and a dense canopy. Wiring can be used carefully to guide branch direction, but always monitor to prevent damage.

Repot every 2–3 years in early spring using a well-draining bonsai soil mix to keep roots healthy and compact.
