Feeding Bonsai during the growth season is essential for survival, and requires a feed developed specifically to meet the treeÂ’s needs.
A specially formulated soluble feed, Bonsai Feed has relatively high phosphorus and potash levels to strengthen stems and root systems.
Bonsai Feed:
Soluble and suitable for most bonsai species
Suitable for ericaceous or lime-hating plants
Strengthens stems and root systems.
As Bonsai are grown in pots, they need to be fertilised regularly to help replace the nutrients taken out of the soil without causing excessive, lush top growth.
To meet those needs, Bonsai Feed should be applied every two weeks from March to October. Indoor Bonsai trees can be fed throughout the year.
Always remember to water Bonsai trees when the soil appears dry. Bonsai Feed can be stored indefinitely, re-sealed tightly and stored in a cool, dry place.
Mix 1 measure (0.5 g) of Vitax Bonsai Feed in 1 litre of water and apply during the growing season, every 2 weeks from March to October.
