Fertilisation
Spring to autumn. With Hiryo Gold organo mineral fertiliser or a fast-acting fertiliser such as Nutribonsai. Not during flowering.
Repotting
Every two years, at the beginning of spring. Afterwards, it is recommended to water with Mistral Bonsai's Vitabonsai invigorator to speed up the tree's recovery.
Soil
Terrabonsai. Special soil for bonsai, that will satisfy its needs of water and nutrients, stimulating the development of roots and its vigour in general. Other soils can also be used, such as a mixture of 60% Kiryuzuna + 40% Akadama, which enhances growth, although it will require more frequent watering.
Pruning
At the beginning of spring flowering.
Pinching
Cut at 2 leaves, when the shoot has 6 to 8 leaves.
