“Few plants are as stylish and sophisticated as bonsai. These tiny trees are part of a centuries-old Asian tradition of training trees into beautiful forms that exhibit symmetry and balance. Although traditional Japanese bonsai live outdoors, you can enjoy these little trees indoors—in your office, your kitchen, your bedroom, or bathroom. These tiny trees add just the right touch of dramatic decor to any indoor space. Since they come in various sizes they fit perfectly on desks, tabletops and even shelves. Bonsai prefer a bright spot indoors; place in a room where your bonsai will receive a significant amount of indirect light during the day. Watering consistently is key, bonsai enjoy moist (not wet) soil. Too much water will make the roots drown so water only when soil begins to dry out. Bonsai requires occasional pruning to keep its beautiful shape, maintain health, and discourage it from outgrowing its container. Bonsai are pruned in two ways—by clipping and shaping their tops (leaves and branches) and clipping and removing some roots. Here is how to trim your bonsai: Clip excess growth to keep the shape of the plant. Remove leaves or stems that detract from the balanced look of the plant. Remove dried or yellow leaves. Because bonsai are planted in small containers, pruning the roots may be necessary as the plant matures. To do this, remove the plant from its pot and trim larger roots. Make sure to keep a large number of smaller roots with lateral and hair roots. This will help keep the plant from becoming root bound.
