Avoid allowing the tree to completely dry out, but do not leave it sitting in water.\u003cbr\u003e🌱 Feeding:\u003cbr\u003eFeed during the growing season with a quality bonsai fertiliser. Reduce or stop feeding during winter dormancy.\u003cbr\u003e✂️ Pruning:\u003cbr\u003ePrune to maintain the desired shape and encourage fine branching.
