Indoor Bonsai Care Indoor Bonsai is a term loosely used, as there is no such tree as an Indoor Bonsai, although some will adapt better than others, any tree kept indoors needs some very basic but essential care. Water is the main ingredient, with light a close second. Feeding and re-potting also play a part. Watering Spring and Summer watering is usually once or twice a day. The best method is to immerse the pot either below water or up to the rim for about five minute, or or even longer, depending on the time of year, or use a fine rose watering can and water two to three times with one minute intervals. In hot conditions I recomend the immersion method. Winter watering is less often, maybe once every other day, depending on room temperature, the type of tree, size of pot, soil composition, and finally, whether the tree is standing on a tray of gravel. The colour of the soil is a good guide to watering requirements. Dark soil indicates moisture level is O.K. Pale brown and dry to the touch indicates watering is required. Position for Bonsai A window Ledge or Conservatory. Place tree on a tray of soft porous gravel, feed regularly with feed pellets or liquid feed as per instructions. (One Teaspoon of liquid to One Litre of water). Trees listed below will adapt to indoor conditions.
