Another question, should I trim any of the dead leaves off?
Anytime you see a bonsai on TV someone is always trimming it ...


If this is truly a "Blue Moss Cypress" it has needles not leaves.
Anything brown can be trimmed without hurting the plant.
Depending on who and what you have seen on TV that might be better or
worse than the guy who sold you this plant.
Trimming is usually done to control growth and is very specific to the
tree and its stage of development.
