Cotoneaster microphylla. Bonsai 10 years. Small-leaved cotoneaster or rockspray cotoneaster. Outdoor bonsai, typical from the Mediterranean. It is characterised both by its white or pink flowers and its small fruits. It needs both sun and cold to produce fruit.
Location: There are more than 100 species and many varieties of Cotoneaster. It is used in gardening for the formation of hedges and shrubs because of its good response to pruning, rusticity and the exuberance of its flowers and fruits of different colours, depending on the species.
Watering: Abundant in summer, moderate in winter.
Curiosities: In the Mediterranean climate, it can be placed outdoors all year round. In colder areas, it should be protected from frost.
Dimensions in centimetres approx. (width x depth x height): 25 x 24 x 33
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.

Fertilising
Spring to autumn. With Hiryo Gold organo mineral fertiliser or a fast-acting fertiliser such as Nutribonsai. Not during flowering.
Transplanting
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.
Substrate
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 substrates can also be used, such as a mixture of 60% Kiryuzuna + 40% Akadama, which promotes growth, although it will require more frequent watering.
Pruning
At the beginning of spring flowering.
Pinning
Cutting at 2 leaves, when the shoot has 6 to 8 leaves.
Wiring
It can be done all year round.
