Fukien Tea Zen Bonsai

WATERING PROPERLY IS CRITICAL TO MAINTAINING A HEALTHY BONSAI!
Your Fukien Tea Bonsai should be watered thoroughly every two or three days. Never let a bonsai totally dry out. Water your bonsai properly by using a watering can or hose attachment that has a fine-spray end. You should thoroughly soak your bonsai's soil.
Water should be running out of the drain holes. Misting foliage periodically is recommended, but, should not be considered watering.
General care is also important to maintaining a beautiful bonsai. Bonsai should be periodically trimmed to keep their miniature shape. To best understand trimming and wiring techniques, we recommend purchasing an instructional book.

FERTILIZING
Fertilizing your Fukien Tea Bonsai is required. Most water-soluble and time released fertilizers work very well when used as directed.

INSECTS AND DISEASES
Insects and diseases can attack your Fukien Tea Bonsai just like any other plant. Inspect your bonsai regularly. A brisk spraying of the trunk and foliage will periodically help keep your tree clean. If any problems appear, most garden centers have products available for treatment.
