Bonsai Tree – Care
Q: A friend was given a bonsai tree as a gift and she does not know about its care. It says to use a slow release fertilizer but what and how much?
A: Much of this depends on what plant you have.
See:
Bonsai
Osmocote is a good slow-release fertilizer but not much should be used since the plant is so small.
