I was given a baobab bonsai....
Hi all..
I was given a baobab planted on a bonsai pot .. It doesn't seem like it's been treated as a bonsai and only looks like it came out of its seeds about two months ago. I'm not experienced at all with bonsais, but thought that a baobab bonsai would be a fantastic idea. Would someone give me any ideas as to what to do? This tree is currently just growing wild on a bonsai pot filled with potting mix. I would like to change this to a different sort of mulch for easier access to the roots.. What recommendations would you give? Thanks to all. |

Good thing that I am still young, and in 40 years perhaps it'll get to a decent stage. I got more information about the baobab.. It is a seedling, which was planted about three months ago. It's currently sitting out in the sun, and is about 6 inches high. It was planted and its first leaf came up about 4 days afterward.. It is amazing how fast it grows. Its roots are so thick! I will take some pictures of it and post their link to this group. I have been watering it a bit too much (once a week).. Although it is summer is practically over here in Australia and in Melbourne we've been having some really hot and dry days. . Perhaps these are the days that this tree does best in. The tree being so small, is it recommended that I should wire it now, or wait until a later stage? Should I get it out of the bonsay tray and plant it on a normal growing pot? Thanks very much once again. |
