Citrus myrtifolia. Bonsai 18 years. Orange tree or chinotto. Outdoor bonsai, typical from the Mediterranean. Very appreciated for its flowers and fruits. It needs both sun and cold to produce fruit.
Location: Its flowers are very aromatic at sunset, when the pollination insects are active, which is a good example of symbiosis.
Watering: Abundant in summer, moderate in winter. Take care not to wet the flowers.
Curiosities: It can adapt to all climates but prefers a sunny location all year round. In summer, it should be protected from the extreme midday sun. It resists frost, but it is better to protect it from temperatures below -2ºC.
Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 52 x 42 x 59
Note: The shape and measurements of the bonsais are approximate. The pot is included on the dimensions. The colour and shape of the pot may vary from that of the photo. A bonsai is a living being, so the vegetative state of the plant changes according to the season. The images that appear are non-binding illustrative pictures.

Fertilisation
From spring to autumn with the organo-mineral fertiliser Hiryo Gold or the fast acting fertiliser Nutribonsai. Do not fertilise during flowering, fertilise once there is fruit.
Transplant
Every 2 years, at the last days of winter or early spring. After that, it is recommended to water with Mistral Bonsai's Vitabonsai invigorator to help the tree's recovery.
Soil
Terrabonsai. Special soil for bonsai. It will satisfy the water and nutrient needs, enhancing the root development and general vigour. Other substrates can also be used, like a mixture of 60% Kiryuzuna + 40% Akadama, that promotes the growth, although it will require more frequent watering.
Pinching
When the shoot has reached 4 to 6 pairs of leaves cut off leaving 1 or 2 of them.Wiring
It can be done all year round, but take care in spring, when growth is faster, as it can leave a mark on the bark.Top sellers
