Late winter/early spring, before the buds start to put out new growth is the best time. You will need knowledge of repotting and soil mixes. The idea is to remove some of the old woody roots and shorten the newer feeder roots so that they will branch out. You have to totally remove the soil first, then when you repot it lay them flat across the new soil and apply more soil on top. Note: good bonsai soil is not potting mix or dirt, but rather a mix of grits, such as perlite, crushed lava, pumice, turface, akadama, gravel or very coarse sand, perhaps with some chopped conifer bark, all particles about 1/4" in size.

How do you bonsai a plant?

"Bonsaiing" a plant is actually quite simple. To bonsai a plant, you would first need a plant. Next , you would find a pot that fits your desire. After finding a pot you like, you trim/prune the roots so they fit into the pot. After prunning, remember to thouroly water the plant. Afterwards, trim the branches of the tree so the proportion of the roots cut off is the same as the proportion of braches are cut off. So if I cut off a third of the roots, I would cut off a third of the branches. After the whole process, keep this plant in a shaded and humid environment. After a few weeks, the bonsai may be taken out and enjojed. NOTE: PLANT MAY DIE NOTE: DO NOT REPOT FOR ANOTHER YEAR


Where is the bonsai tree on red dragon island?

When the Yokozuna runs over the repaired bridge, the girl drops her bonsai scissors. Go to the Bonsai hut (right, in the garden). The old woman is nearsighted, so she asks you to cut the tree. Carefully remove the leaves that are a different color, revealing the ones underneath that match the design image. Don't trim too far!
