Is it Indoor Bonsai by Paul Lesniewicz? The consensus on this side of the
Atlantic is that European homes are heated and cooled differently than most
American homes so maybe trees that die here indoors will survive in European
homes, however, they will all be happier outdoors spring, summer, fall. They are
deciduous (lose their leaves in winter) and need a cool, dormant period for
good health.
Hopefully one of our members in the UK will respond.
