Specifications
Age : 2.5 - 3 Years
Size (Approx) : L X W X H : 5.5" x 4" x 6"
Note : The plant might differ a little than the picture as each Bonsai is created differently.
Environment
The Bonsai Podocarpus prefers consistently moist soil but requires excellent drainage to prevent waterlogging. Its small, leathery leaves minimize water loss through transpiration, so overwatering should be avoided to prevent root rot, indicated by gray needles.
To maintain optimal humidity, use misting and place the bonsai on a shallow humidity tray filled with stones and water, ensuring the water level stays below the pot’s base. This setup replicates the plant’s natural environment by providing balanced moisture without saturating the roots.
